Greta Thunberg has joined French rioters in Paris, welcomed by the far-left mayor, who called his area the ‘capital of resistance’ amid accusations the far-left are fuelling an ‘insurrection’ in France.

Thunberg dismissed the violence of the rioters, instead criticising police.

Tuesday saw tens of thousands demonstrate after the left called for an ‘act 5’ of protests they say are about a lack of resources for schools. 90% of universities have been blockaded and more than 200 schools have closed.

Despite the government hiring 160 new teachers since Friday, riots raged on. Rennes in Britanny was the site of major fires for the second day in a row on Tuesday, with a high school ablaze. Damage to schools in the Occitanie region alone has topped 4 million euros – equivalent to the total annual maintenance budget. Montpellier has authorised the deployment of drones to keep track of rioters.

147 education staff have been injured during the protests, with 22 injured Monday alone.

Lyon saw masked individuals vandalising streets on Tuesday morning, where an insurance company was looted. Police intervened before the group entered a bank.
