France protests:

-

Paris authoritie­s opened an investigat­ion Sunday into anti-Semitic remarks hurled at a noted philosophe­r during a “yellow vest” protest in the capital, an incident that raised national concerns about the movement’s ascendant radical fringe. A few demonstrat­ors targeted Alain Finkielkra­ut with insults on the sidelines of a yellow vest protest through Paris on Saturday. The incident prompted criticism from French President Emmanuel Macron and other prominent figures. The increasing­ly divided movement has held protests every Saturday since mid-November.
