On October 31, 2026, Paris deployed 70,000 police and gendarmes to manage a third consecutive weekend of protests focused on living costs and education. The Paris march was rerouted to the city's edge amid youth-led demonstrations spreading across Europe. Interior Minister Laurent Nuñez warned of a high risk of disorder, especially after dark on Halloween. Authorities banned central city marches to protect shops, despite legal challenges from unions and student groups.
