French cities, including Paris and Lille, have implemented night curfews in response to recent riots. During Saturday's demonstrations, which drew more than half a million participants, police conceded that some cities were ungovernable. On Monday, Prime Minister Sébastien Lecornu stated that imposing local, partial curfews was preferable to declaring a state of emergency.
