Police clashed with protesters across France on Saturday during nationwide demonstrations over the cost of living, fuel prices and social inequalities. France’s Interior Ministry said 60 officers were initially injured, a figure later more than doubled after Prime Minister Sebastien Lecornu reported 150 police personnel hurt and 1,200 people arrested. The Interior Ministry put the turnout at some 550,000 people and said hundreds of arrests followed violent incidents in Paris, Marseille, Rennes, Toulouse, Angers and elsewhere. Officials said violence included attempted looting, confrontations with law enforcement, fires set to street furniture, and attacks on seats of power and media outlets. In Paris and Marseille, police fired tear gas at protesters during clashes. AFP reported looting in Paris, Marseille, Nice, Bordeaux and Lille, where an Apple store was stripped. The offices of French broadcasters CNews and Europe 1 in western Paris were also vandalized, and AFP journalists saw parked cars torched. Macron condemned the violence and warned that people who attacked prefectures, businesses, town halls or looted would be prosecuted and punished. In Lyon, the city’s tourism office was set alight, with flames and black smoke visible. In Limoges, protesters set fire to the town hall; the blaze spread to the roof, destroying much of the historic building. In Lille, protesters smashed their way into the city hall and vandalized the premises before leaving. The latest information provided says police acted to disperse the unrest, while the Interior Ministry reported mass arrests tied to the violent incidents.
