High school mobilization: in Paris, police officers killed by their own explosive grenade

On October 13, several police officers were injured at Place Vauban in Paris due to the explosion of a grenade similar to the one that caused the amputation of a high school student’s hand a few days earlier. The incident highlights concerns over the use of such devices during protests involving students. The grenade used appears to be of the same type linked to previous incidents, raising questions about safety and the potential risks posed by these explosives in public spaces. This event has likely intensified discussions around protest tactics and police equipment usage.
