France has seen a wave of mass protests since mid-November when the so-called yellow vest protesters took to the streets to rally against fuel tax hikes. A protester has died in France after being hit by a truck, according to the prosecutor's office.
The incident follows a deadly attack close to Strasbourg's Christmas market where a gunman opened fire killing two people with a third person listed as being brain-dead and injuring 12 people. The "yellow vest" rallies in France have been marked by violent clashes between the police and protesters, some of whom were torching cars and looting shops in Paris.
