French police arrest a protester in the capital, Paris

The British government announced the postponement of King Charles III’s visit to France at the request of French President Emmanuel Macron.

The French presidency confirmed that the decision to postpone was taken jointly by London and Paris.

The Elysee Palace said that the request to postpone the visit of the king and queen consort came due to calls for demonstrations on Tuesday, the tenth day of protests.

French Interior Minister Gerald Darmanan announced the arrest of 457 people and the injury of 441 policemen, during the unrest that the country has been witnessing for several days, in protest against the pension reform law.
