French PM warns of possible emergency
France has experienced an escalation of the crisis, with raids of looting and violence continuing overnight, marking the worst unrest the country has seen in decades. Prime Minister Sebastian Le Courtois announced that the government might declare a state of emergency if necessary. President Emmanuel Macron stated that public gathering bans could be imposed to stop the violence and curb its escalation, citing the rising cost of living, which he attributes to what he calls the "Iranian war." Meanwhile, Donald Trump blamed France's immigration policies. The protests have resulted in the arrest of over 2,300 demonstrators, injuries to around 1,000 police officers, and the death of one protester due to a heart attack.
