Apple's flagship Champs-Elysees store will remain closed Saturday as the company suspends retail operations across Paris ahead of planned protests.

Apple will close seven French stores on Saturday, October 24, as Paris prepares for further protests following last weekend's violence. The closures include all three Apple stores within the French capital, while shopping center locations around Paris are expected to remain open.
