  "summary": "France prepared on Saturday for a third consecutive weekend of protests regarding living costs and education. The Local France and France 24 reported that shops have been boarded up as authorities attempt to prevent a recurrence of the street violence that affected the country two weeks ago. The Mainichi reported that 70,000 police and gendarmes have been deployed, with the Paris march pushed to the capital's outer boulevards.\n\nInterior Minister Laurent Nuñez warned of a very high risk of disorder, particularly after dark on Halloween. To protect shops, President Emmanuel Macron stated that marches would remain out of city centers. The Mainichi noted that Paris police banned union and yellow vest marches through the city center, instead ordering them to follow a route from Porte de Bagnolet to Porte de Charenton. Additionally, police barred entry to Les Halles and the Place de la Republique during specific overnight hours, while unaccompanied minors face a 9 p.m. curfew near the Champs-Elysees.",
