The education minister said up to 500 schools would suspend some or all classes on Monday, citing safety concerns, while organisers call for protests to resume. Reports put the toll since late September at at least 5,000 arrests, mostly of teenagers, 24 schools burnt or ransacked and 78 staff injured.
