France Suspends Stun Grenades for Policing Student Protests
French authorities announced Oct. 7 suspension of stun grenades to police student protests. The order followed the Oct. 6 high-school mobilization, which drew 266,000 to 450,000 demonstrators and 488 arrests. Students protest teacher shortages, dilapidated buildings and overcrowding. How policing changes could shape further blockades bears watching.
