80,000 police officers have been deployed across France, on a day of nationwide strikes and demonstrations against government austerity plans. They’ll be tracking dozens of protests against proposed budget cuts that include a freeze on social welfare programs.
The strikes come amid a prolonged period of political instability. Even before the marches began, videos of police clashing with protesters in Marseille were going viral.
