Germany and France brace for protests on Halloween weekend

A wave of youth-led protests has swept Europe, with demonstrators denouncing rising prices and a lack of prospects. Germany and France are preparing for further protests over the Halloween weekend.

Germany and France, the two largest economies in the European Union, are bracing for protests over the Halloween weekend. The demonstrations follow a wider wave of youth-led protests that has swept across Europe.

Protesters have voiced anger at rising prices and a lack of prospects. These two grievances are the main ones demonstrators cite.

The source, a short introduction from Al Jazeera, gives no details on where or when the planned demonstrations will take place, how many people are expected, or who is organising them. It also does not say how authorities in Germany and France are preparing. Because that information is not available, it is not included here.
