Nearly a Thousand Arrested in France on Monday as Youth Riots Spread
Breitbart ^ | October 06, 2026 | Kurt Zindulka

Almost a thousand people were arrested across France on Monday as the multicultural teenager riots continue to ramp up with the backing of the far-left.

At least 984 people were arrested, and 65 police officers were injured as the so-called high school protests entered their third week on Monday, in which hordes of teenagers have gone on violent rampages in cities across the country, with little in the way of a coherent message other than an apparent desire to usher in chaos.

Since the riots began in mid-September, over 5,000 people have been arrested, 87 per cent of whom were minors, Le Figaro reported. The demonstrations have seen a total of 715 police officers and gendarmes injured, as well as 85 school staff members, including 34 school principals.

While the far-left have attempted to ascribe noble motives to the rioters, the demonstrations have been marred by frequent attacks on average citizens, including a woman who suffered burns after a 15-year-old sprayed a makeshift flamethrower into her face.

Among those arrested on Monday was a high school girl, who was found to be carrying a Molotov cocktail, lighter, baking soda, and rubbing alcohol in her schoolbag, the Paris Prefect revealed on X.

Monday once again also saw masked students setting fires at their schools — while supposedly protesting to demand better educational environment standards — including at the Lycée Vauquelin in Paris, where youths broke windows and set a fire outside of one of the doors, prompting an evacuation of the students.

Meanwhile, at least 190 students have also been injured since the start of the unrest, which Education Minister Édouard Geffray said was mostly a result of “accidental events or injuries caused by troublemakers, particularly mortar fire.”

Given the post-1789 political history of France, I would say its about time for the 5th Republic to fall.

I saw some videos. The French police aren’t playing around. They’re bashing the filthy rioters I the heads with night sticks and slamming them into the ground.

The English could learn a thing or two, but then, every video I have seen of the British police shows slovenly porkers on beards. Did the UK only hire Droogs and muzzslimes?

The student-led blockades and marches—which have drawn support from some teachers and parents—focus heavily on “systemic resource shortages.”

The French government has pushed back by condemning pockets of associated urban violence and property damage, arguing that the core educational message has been hijacked by agitators.

Among the “protesters,” we don’t see a broad cross-section of French society but overwhelmingly nonwhite males, immigrants and the children of immigrants. The barricades are being raised largely by Muslims of North African and Middle Eastern descent. Outside many schools, students weren’t chanting about funding cuts or classroom conditions, they were chanting “we are antifascists” and other such slogans. In Marseille, rioters flew the flag of Algeria and Hamas, not the tricolor. It was the same at a number of high schools that saw rioting. It’s pretty obvious what’s going on, and who is behind the unrest.

...

In short, what is happening in France is that the communists and the Muslim migrants are joining forces, testing their strength on the eve of national elections. It might be illegal to say so in France, but these are ethnic riots, a show of force by unassimilated Muslim migrants and their hard-left revolutionary allies, who believe they are strong enough to overpower the native majority.

Were arrested. And then what? Let go? Given a slap on the wrist? Where there are no consequences for crimes, it will just get worse. They need to be deported, along with their families, but I’ll be surprised if that happens.

Not a lot of Muslims in these Paris riots. But they have been more prevalent in the other cities.

The riots in Paris look more like the typical Antifa riot.

What?

Gangs of Muslims are grabbing white people and killing them. Girls with blond hair getting kicked in the head left to die.

Education system?

Has anyone here been to Paris in the past 30 years?

> immigrants and the children of immigrants <

Many studies have shown that the children of Muslim immigrants are, in general, more radical than their parents.

There will be no assimilation. So this is not a problem that will fade with time. It will only get worse.
