> France is set for another nationwide day of demonstrations on Saturday over the cost of living and school conditions. Dubbed “Act Three,” the protests unite Yellow Vest activists and students. The country’s highest administrative court upheld a ban on the planned Paris march route, keeping protesters to the capital’s eastern outskirts. Authorities are deploying 70,000 security personnel and imposing curfews in some areas. The interior minister warned that covering one’s face at a demonstration remains illegal.
