Press Briefs reported nearly 7,000 police custody cases, 86% of which involved minors, and indicated that the majority had not led to legal proceedings at this stage. The account described these arrests as a massive and unprecedented measure aimed at containing the mobilization of young people. Several cited observers viewed this as a form of intimidation, while Press Briefs believed this practice infringed on the right to protest and risked normalizing disproportionate police and judicial responses. The account added that the preventive use of police custody had already been documented during the Yellow Vests movement. Relying on independent press articles, Press Briefs relayed testimonies from high school students reporting violent detention conditions, symptoms of post-traumatic stress, forced undressings, and physical or psychological violence. A 15-year-old reportedly recounted being slammed against a concrete bed and hit on the head by police and then insulted. A complaint had been filed, according to the account, which also indicated that the police prefecture had not responded to Mediapart's questions about the reported statements. Mohammed, a 16-year-old high school student in Saint-Denis, reportedly stated that police had hit the bars of his cell during the night to wake up the detainees and had targeted him with a racist insult. The mother of Noham, also 16, claimed that her son had been hit in the liver and face after asking why he had been arrested. Adam's mother also denounced violence against young protesters. Press Briefs added that several teenage girls and boys reported sexist and racist remarks from police, and complaints had been filed. Anne Savinel-Barras, president of Amnesty International France, expressed her concern over the repression of the student movement, believing that the young people's demands for education and health were met with prohibitions on demonstrations and disproportionate police violence. The NGO stated that it would support people peacefully protesting and defend the right to demonstrate. The United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights also expressed concern about the situation in France and notably called for a proportional use of force. #jeunesse #manifestation #répression (translated)

Didier Maïsto accused Emmanuel Macron of having confined a generation for months, closed high schools, and isolated teenagers, while he was going to the theater with his wife. He believed that these measures had contributed to the distress of young people and criticized the fact that their anger was treated as a public order issue. To support his statements, Maïsto cited figures he attributed to Public Health France and the National Suicide Observatory: nearly one in five high school students would have shown a significant risk of depression and suicidal thoughts in the past year, and 15% would have already attempted suicide. He also indicated that hospitalizations for self-inflicted injuries among young women aged 15 to 19 had reached 516 per 100,000 in 2023, an increase of nearly 50% since 2017, while the youth suicide rate is said to have increased by 40% between 2020 and 2022. According to him, more than half of students reported depressive symptoms during the second lockdown. Maïsto added that the deterioration of young people's mental health had started in the mid-2010s and that the lockdowns had accelerated it. He also mentioned isolation, academic pressure, Parcoursup, social media, and precarity, estimating that girls were particularly affected. He concluded that young people did not need to be targeted by defense ball launchers. #SantéMentaleJeunes #SantéMentale #Jeunesse #Dépression (translated)

Tomasz P. Terlikowski's article emphasizes that attacks in Polish schools are a symptom of a deeper pandemic of peer violence, which has its roots in the intensified hatred in society, especially among adults, and cannot be combated merely through increased controls or quick reactions; it requires the collective engagement of the entire society.

Franz-Olivier Giesbert believed that the situation in high schools revealed a decline in values and knowledge that began well before Emmanuel Macron's birth in 1977. He traced its origin to the "garbage of May 68," while acknowledging that this period also brought positive advances, such as women's emancipation. https://t.co/d59Q1Krp77 #Éducation #Valeurs #Société #FR (translated)

The X-user Coxx wrote that the medfluencer Alina Walbrun fell for a fabricated illness of the YouTuber Marvin Wildhage in July 2026. Wildhage supposedly had "post-viral nasal hypersensitivity" and invented a fake pharmaceutical company supposedly led by "Dr. Sofia Beatrice Gepetto." Walbrun accepted 3,800 euros for paid clarification and stated on Instagram that she was familiar with the condition from her studies. According to Coxx, she also mentioned symptoms that had not been included in the briefing. Coxx described Walbrun, born in 1998, as one of the most influential German-speaking medfluencers; she had around 300,000 Instagram followers. She had studied human medicine at LMU Munich until May 2026 and referred to herself as "Doc Alina," even though she was not a practicing doctor. Criticism of this had already existed before the scandal. After the video was released, Walbrun apologized, called the term unverified and misleading, and donated the 3,800 euros to Doctors Without Borders, wrote Coxx. The LMU clinic stated that Walbrun was no longer active there and distanced itself from unscientific statements. Coxx also pointed to criticism of the "Doc" title, retracted Harvard statements that later only pertained to a summer school, as well as Walbrun's company Onegevity. This company sold dietary supplements, including matcha with sleep berry, which the BfR warned against. Unsolicited blood sugar tips had also drawn criticism from the German Diabetes Society. Coxx wrote that the public prosecutor's office is now investigating Walbrun, whom he labeled a left-green activist and fraudster. #Medfluencer #Gesundheit #Skandal (translated)

The author presented these violences as a symptom of a collapse of the school system, which he accused of having renounced its mission to transmit knowledge, called into question the legacy, and prohibited any requirements. He also referred to the National Education as a "lie of the State." He recalled that he wrote, ten years earlier, fearing less the shock of something, without providing further details in his message. https://t.co/4EWdIXqn89 #Éducation #Violence #Société #FR (translated)
