vandalism, French media reported.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to Le Figaro, the provisional police toll at 11 local time (10 GMT) reported 600 arrests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Regarding the closure of the 400 high schools, which represent around 10% of the total number of institutes in France, this was a figure put forward this Friday by the <a

parents for the damages caused by their children.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The minister stated that about 300 police officers and gendarmes and more than 60 teachers and school administrators have been injured in the incidents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Minister of Justice also criticized leaders of the leftist party <strong>La France Insoumise (LFI)<\/strong>, including its leader Jean-Luc M\u00e9lenchon, whom he accused of contributing to the escalation of violence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images
