In France, more than 320,000 people participated in the third straight weekend of largely peaceful sit-ins, demanding government action to lower the cost of living and improve poor public services, particularly in the education sector.
Thousands of police were deployed across France and fired tear gas at protesters in some cities.
Recently, mainly young protesters took to the streets in several European countries: France, Belgium, Ireland, Spain, Portugal, Italy, Greece, Serbia and Albania.
Although the details of the requirements vary from country to country, the interceptions mainly revolve around issues related to the cost of living, such as housing and the quality of education, and cuts in public services.
