If you are looking for decent reporting on France and the riots.....I recommend France-24 (it's in English).
What I generally expect?
There's supposed to be a 7:30 PM meeting with Macron and his staff. I expect a curfew order to be given....nationally....probably for three or four nights.
I don't expect the curfew to be respected.
The French Attorney General? I expect some escalation of 'powers' to be created, and some folks are going to be held until a court date...after their arrest.
Mob violence to end as of this weekend? Some people suggest it'll lessen. We are in mid-summer and I suspect this riot business might continue for another week or two.
Spreading out, past France? I saw one isolated episode in Lausanne, Switzerland...maybe a hundred 'kids'. Police there said it was purely teenagers.
