France to deploy soldiers in wake of fatal school stabbing

France was on high alert as thousands of troops were deployed on the streets after the fatal stabbing of a teacher and the Louvre museum was evacuated following a security threat. The attack took place at a high school in the northeastern town of Arras, home to large Jewish and Muslim populations. Moreover, amid fears that the conflict between Israel and Hamas could lead to violence in foreign capitals, France announced it would deploy up to 7,000 soldiers under the highest warning level.
