Protests, rioting, and looting continue across several cities in France as authorities brace for the fifth day of turmoil triggered by the killing of a 17-year-old by police. Reinforcements were sent to Marseille, Nanterre, Paris and other parts of the country that have been witnessing unrest for the last few days. The Emmanuel Macron government has said that the violence has “lessened” now but deployed 45,000 police to the streets nationwide to curtail the situation.
