France is preparing for large-scale protests against the high cost of living, with tens of thousands expected to participate.

The protests will include various movements, such as the Yellow Vests and leftist organizations. Previous demonstrations have seen clashes with law enforcement and significant participation, with 550,000 attendees reported on October 17.
