In France, the fifth consecutive night of protests went quieter than the previous one, but according to a provisional balance of the authorities, 719 rioters have been arrested. Protesters have been taking to the streets day and night in cities across the country since Tuesday following the death of 17-year-old Nahel, who was shot dead by a police officer during a traffic check. His funeral took place yesterday in a serene but tense atmosphere. French President Emmanuel Macron has canceled his planned state visit to Germany due to the emergency.
