“Clashes between Paris police and protesters continue for a third night as thousands take to the streets across the country amid growing discontent over government raising the retirement age with no vote in parliament.” – says the material.
Law enforcement in Paris was also reported to have used tear gas against protesters who set fire to trash cans. 81 protesters were arrested on Sunday night and 61 on Friday.
