WATCH: Macron Backs Police as Questions Over Teen Injuries Shadow France Protests | Times Now World

French police deployed motorcycle units outside Paris's Saint-Lazare railway station on Saturday, October 17, as authorities prepared for student-led protests over education, living conditions and rising living costs. Officers joined police already stationed outside the busy transport hub and carried out checks on members of the public. Calls to revive France's Yellow Vest movement over fuel prices have gathered momentum amid weeks of student demonstrations over poor school conditions and clashes with police, with trade unions backing the October 17 mobilisation. President Emmanuel Macron urged calm and expressed support for police ahead of the demonstrations, following weeks of unrest in which teenagers were seriously injured, including a 15-year-old reportedly injured in a police grenade explosion. Prime Minister Sébastien Lecornu convened an interministerial crisis team as authorities prepared for hundreds of protest actions nationwide. The mobilisation presents a fresh test for the French government as student grievances, economic pressures and concerns over police conduct converge.
