France Deploys Troops and Police for Protests After Weekend Riots

France is boosting security with Operation Sentinelle soldiers guarding key sites and a massive police operation ahead of expected protests this Saturday, following riots over rising living costs and school conditions that damaged cities like Paris, Marseille, and Lyon.

Officials reported 550,000 participants, thousands of arrests, and injuries to police, admitting planning shortfalls that led to curfews. A Fox News investigation identified 101 organizations in a 'red-green' alliance coordinating further actions, while Prime Minister Lecornu vows an immediate return to order.
