„Gen Z regelt“: Bundesweite Jugendproteste – Kölner Polizei setzt Wasserwerfer am Rand der Demo ein
In mehr als 30 Städten wollen Jugendliche auf die Straße gehen. Mehr als 182.000 Menschen sollen teilnehmen. Bislang verlaufen die Proteste weitgehend friedlich, mit wenigen Ausnahmen.
Across Germany, youth protests have kicked off, with participants gathering in cities like Berlin, Frankfurt, Hamburg, and others. Between 182,100 and 14:00, over 182,100 individuals had signed up to attend the demonstrations. However, the number of official expected attendees at each location is lower. Concerns over potential unrest prompted some shop owners in inner-city districts and particularly in upscale shopping avenues to barricade storefronts with wooden planks, while some businesses remained closed due to the Reform Day holiday.
The nationwide initiative "Gen Z regelt" called for the protests, urging for increased funding for schools, sex advice, and psychotherapy, measures to combat rising living costs, social justice, and enhanced climate action. The protest is peaceful, with an appeal for more than 30 German cities, but the final attendance figure remains uncertain.
