18 September 2025, France, Marseille: People protest in front of La Joliette and the harbour terraces against austerity measures. Authorities expect approximately 800,000 people to participate. The unions behind the protests called a strike to denounce the government's ''catastrophic'' budget proposal, which was drawn up to try to reduce the rapidly rising public debt.
