France Investigates Attempted Murder After Police Attacks During Protests

French prosecutors opened an attempted murder investigation following violent attacks on police officers during protests on October 31, 2026, in Paris and other cities. Petrol bombs were thrown at the police, resulting in injuries to officers and widespread unrest, according to official statements. The unrest occurred amid large-scale demonstrations across France, including protests led by young people focusing on living costs and education.

The French interior ministry had earlier announced a massive deployment of 70,000 police officers to maintain public order during the Halloween protests. Police used tear gas and stun grenades to disperse masked rioters in several cities, leading to hundreds of arrests. These events reflect ongoing tensions in France related to economic and social issues, with authorities responding to maintain control amid escalating demonstrations.
