Oil facilities hit in deadly overnight attack on St Petersburg

France on Sunday is dealing with the aftermath of nationwide protests that damaged around 1,500 businesses and caused losses estimated at hundreds of millions of euros. Police arrested an estimated 1,800 people across the country during Saturday's demonstrations over the cost of living and school conditions.

From student protests and heightened tensions across French demonstrations on October 17, to ongoing anti-government marches in Albania and the tragic sinking of a migrant boat off the coast of Djibouti, FRANCE 24 looks back at some of the most striking images from the past week.

The ambassador condemned the attack as "vicious" and called for the prosecution of those involved.

Footage circulating online appears to show several diplomats being attacked in the vicinity of the village of Taybeh, Israeli police said.
