00:00France will reinforce police with troops and mount a huge security operation for more protests
00:06planned on Saturday. This as the country acknowledges the failures in its response
00:10to last weekend's violence. Prime Minister Sébastien Lacourneau says the immediate
00:15priority was to restore order after rioting and looting swept Paris, Marseille, Lyon,
00:21and other cities on October 17. The unrest was attributed to far-left groups. The government
00:26faces criticism for underestimating public anger, over-living costs, and declining services.
00:32Targeted curfews helped restore calm, but the situation has impacted the economy.
