 本期内容:

The Eiffel Tower in Paris is to close on Saturday amid fears of further street violence from "yellow vest" anti-government protests. Across France, 89,000 police officers will be on duty and armoured vehicles will be deployed in the capital. Police have urged shops and restaurants on Paris's Champs-Elysees to shut and some museums will also be closed. The government has said it is scrapping unpopular fuel tax increases in its budget - the original trigger for the protests.
