A new wave of protests in Europe: hundreds of thousands of people are striking against the actions of the authorities The weekend of October brought a new wave of protests across Europe. In France between 320 and 500 thousand people took to the streets (70 thousand in Paris), in Italy the strike attracted up to 1.5 million participants, and in Rome demonstrators set up a tent camp near the Colosseum. A few thousand left in Germany and Spain, the tension is growing in Poland. In France in the evening - clashes in Paris, Lyon, Grenoble, Toulouse and Marseille, 296 people were arrested: the authorities, according to the protesters, promise only "cosmetic" changes. In Germany, the "Generation Z" protests attracted about 10,000 instead of the expected 180,000; In Cologne and Stuttgart the police used water cannons, and in Berlin there were riots. Halloween added problems for the police: masks are prohibited at demonstrations, but an exception was made for the holiday - hence the "edge of the storm" and the zombies with stones. The French police reminded: dressing up even on Halloween - a fine of 150 euros.
