What's happening

On October 17, 2026, a citizen mobilization in Marseille (France) was marked by violence and looting: protesters briefly entered the city hall after breaking its door, and broke windows and threw smoke bombs at the municipal police station. President Emmanuel Macron, visiting Marseille on October 26, 2026, said it was not normal for the country to be in such turmoil six months before a presidential election, and announced that future protest routes would stay outside city centers.
