Eyewitness footage shows the Frannçois Rabelais high school in Metz, eastern France, in flames. ⁣ ⁣ Authorities have launched an investigation into the cause of the fire. ⁣ ⁣ The Public Prosecutor said he could neither “confirm nor rule out a link” between the fire and the nationwide high school protests over the past few days.⁣ ⁣ Protesting students say their school hours are needlessly long, there are too many staff absences and classroom conditions are inadequate.⁣ ⁣ #france #protests
