French police use tear gas to disperse protesters in Lyon

French police fired tear gas to disperse protesters in Lyon, according to Agence France-Presse.

France's main student union had called for marches on Saturday, while the Yellow Vests movement, which emerged as an anti-establishment force in 2018, announced plans for a demonstration through central Paris.

France continues to grapple with the aftermath of its worst violence in years, following last weekend's looting and riots during protests. Authorities have imposed nighttime curfews in parts of Paris and other cities.
