PRESS REVIEW – Wednesday, October 7: Papers mark the third anniversary of the October 7 attacks. But first: the high school protests that have swept across France make the front pages at home and abroad. Also, the Argentinian press waves off Lionel Messi after his last international match. Finally, a British adventurer completes a 28-year walk around the world.
The French front pages all look quite alike this Wednesday. Aujourd'hui en France describes 266,000 young people in the streets, according to the interior ministry, while L'Humanité reports that 450,000 protesters descended into the streets across France. Libération celebrates the high school "aura", saying thousands of young people marched for their rights without any major incidents.
