Here is what the page “France Halts Police Stun Grenades at School Protests After Teen Loses Hand in Lens” contains. French Interior Minister Laurent Nuñez has ordered a temporary suspension of stun grenade use by police at high-school demonstrations, following an incident in Lens where a 15-year-old protester lost a hand. The decision comes amid two weeks of nationwide student protests over education reforms, marked by violent clashes that have injured hundreds and sparked accusations of excessive police force.
Nuñez told RTL radio the halt applies specifically to the high-school movement 'until we know what happened' in Lens, signaling a potential review of crowd-control tactics. The protests, driven by anger over dilapidated school conditions and deep inequality in France's education system, have put pressure on the government to address both student grievances and law enforcement conduct.
