Authorities report restored public peace overnight while planning a massive security operation for new protests scheduled for Saturday. Paris police curfew zones around Place de la République and Les Halles remain in place as needed, while Lyon renews a 9 p.m. to 6 a.m. curfew. Marseille imposes a curfew for unaccompanied minors. Interior Minister Laurent Nuñez announced that soldiers from the Sentinelle anti-terrorism operation will guard sensitive sites to free up police and gendarmes for crowd control.
