Widespread rioting and looting have broken out across major French cities, including Paris, Lyon, and Lille, following protests over the rising cost of living. Prime Minister Sébastien Le Cornu warned that radical groups are attempting to destabilize the country ahead of the presidential election. Over 3,000 stores were vandalized during a single weekend of disorder.

Widespread rioting in France has resulted in the burning of schools and attacks on emergency personnel. GBN reporting suggests the unrest is a consequence of decades of failed mass migration and integration policies. While officials hesitate to label the rioters as migrants, video evidence shows significant conflict in urban centers like Marseille and Paris.
