High school students in the street for “Act V”, a test for the movement
The anger of high school students is at a turning point this Tuesday. If it is going to be heard in the streets for “Act V”, the scale of the mobilization will above all allow the government to know if the movement is indeed running out of steam. On Monday, 96.5% of establishments were open with 130 establishments closed, compared to 172 on Friday, according to the Ministry of Education, which does not however communicate on the number of establishments whose activity is disrupted by blockages.

Investigation underway after the shooting at a college in Aubagne
National Education has been in a state of shock since Monday morning. Around 9:25 a.m., on the grounds of the Lakanal college in Aubagne, a 14-year-old teenager opened fire with a hunting rifle, injuring the principal of the establishment and a teacher before being disarmed. Neutralized by the principal education advisor (CPE) of this establishment located near Marseille, the schoolboy was arrested. A few hours later, his father and mother were taken into police custody “to try to understand how this young person came to be in possession of this weapon,” said Interior Minister Laurent Nuñez who came to the scene. The college will not reopen its doors this Tuesday for students. This shooting, however, does not seem to be linked to the movement which is shaking up French high schools.

Emissions fell significantly by 4.1% in the first half of the year but the decline should slow to only 1.3% in the second, with emissions from the energy sector expected to increase over this period, Citepa, the organization responsible for establishing the national inventory, reported on Tuesday.
