President Emmanuel Macron has acknowledged significant lapses in intelligence and anticipation following a wave of violent protests that recently spread across France. Interior Minister Laurent Nunez admitted that authorities lost control of the situation in several cities during the weekend unrest, citing a failure in operational preparation.
