The head of France's Chambers of Commerce and Industry revealed that the protests directly affected 2,000 businesses that day.\n\nSince December 25, 2025, the PKR has consistently reported gains against the US Dollar. On October 14, the PKR closed at 276.9545 against the USD, gaining a mere 0.0093 against the greenback.
