French authorities detained over 400 people, mostly minors, and reported at least 60 injuries during student protests at high schools nationwide. The scale of detentions suggests a significant escalation in social unrest, though the underlying grievances remain unspecified. This development signals potential political instability and could pressure the government's handling of youth-related policies.
