Europe2 sources2 countries🔦 Under-reported45m ago
High school students across France launched a fresh wave of mass protests on Thursday, marking the second day of major demonstrations in a week. Pupils blocked entrances to hundreds of schools nationwide, resulting in the closure of just over 150 institutions.
The demonstrations have persisted for more than a week despite government efforts to ease the growing crisis, which has involved the deployment of riot police. In response to the unrest, France's education minister has invited three major student groups to meet with him on Thursday afternoon.
