The French government has suspended the use of stun grenades by police during student protests following an incident where a 15-year-old boy lost his hand. The decision was announced on Wednesday amid ongoing demonstrations roiling the country.

The suspension comes in response to the teenager's severe injury, which occurred during a clash between student protesters and riot police. Authorities halted the deployment of the crowd-control devices specifically in relation to the management of these student-led protests.
