Macron says French schoolchildren's anger is being politically exploited as country prepares for October 17 protests
High school student protests continue in France: more than 6,800 people have been detained, 86% of them minors, and the IGPN has opened 36 investigations. The government announced measures, including 3,000 substitute teachers and an additional €1 billion education budget, but student unions consider them insufficient. A nationwide action against the rising cost of living is planned for October 17.
