> The reporter says recent riots in France have been more violent and destructive, with parts of Paris and other cities at times beyond authorities’ control. Clashes last weekend led to about 2,500 arrests, around 1,000 officers injured and roughly 3,000 businesses affected, with damage estimated at more than $1 billion. Prime Minister Lecornu says a massive police operation backed by the military will respond to this weekend’s planned protest.
