“Suspects have been arrested in connection with attacks carried out against French prisons earlier this month, said French justice minister Gerarld Darminin on Monday. At least 20 people were arrested in police raids raids across France Monday after a series of attacks on prisons that scared staff and rattled the government, a source close to the case said. The early morning arrests took place in the Paris region, Marseille in the south and in Lyon and Bordeaux, the source told AFP, with raids still going on.” (04/28/25)
