Secretary of State Marco Rubio said Saturday no decision has yet been made on whether to renew hostilities with Iran.
Around 320,000 protesters took part in a third mass protest over living costs across France on Saturday, the interior ministry estimated, while organizers counted nearly half a million. Tensions flared at the end of marches in some cities but authorities reported that most demonstrations were largely peaceful.
Police said about 70,000 people demonstrated in Paris alone. France's interior ministry said about 320,000 people rallied nationwide.
Police and protesters clashed Saturday in Germany, where tens of thousands of young people took to the streets, inspired by similar movements in other European countries. At the call of a collective called "GenZ regelt!" ("Gen Z has got this!"), protesters formed marches across the country to demand more funding for education and to protest the high cost of living.
