French authorities have deployed 70,000 police and gendarmes for planned protests on October 31, driven by cost-of-living and education reform grievances. This large-scale mobilization, following recent riots, indicates a high perceived risk of public disorder and potential violence. The precise size and demands of the protests, as well as the outcome, remain uncertain.
