Paris-Sana

Today, the French police arrested dozens of protesters who clashed with them during mass demonstrations in the country today, denouncing the economic policies of the French government.

Agence France-Presse reported that various French cities witnessed today widespread protests to demand an increase in wages and to denounce the government's forcing workers in the field of refineries and fuel depots.

And the French Ministry of the Interior revealed that the authorities arrested 11 people in the French capital, adding that 107,000 people nationwide responded to the protest call by political parties in the capital.

Inter-provincial trains were nearly halved as several unions called a nationwide strike amid anger over inflation that France has not seen in decades, as well as the extension of weeks-long labor strikes at oil refineries to other economic sectors.

In turn, Eurostar said it had canceled some train services between London and Paris due to the strike and with the escalation of tension in the second largest economy in the eurozone, while the strikes spread to other sectors, including the giant Electricity de France.
