Germany Prepares for Youth-Led Protests on Education and Living Costs
More than 160,000 people across over 30 German cities are expected to join youth-led protests organized by Gen Z regelt on October 31, 2026. Demonstrators demand better education, lower living costs, and oppose compulsory military service. Authorities anticipate largely peaceful rallies coinciding with Halloween but warn of potential extremist exploitation. The movement aligns with similar youth protests across Europe addressing social and economic concerns, while officials remain cautious due to recent unrest in countries like France.
