Youth Protests in Morocco Cause Two Deaths, Hundreds Injured, Hundreds Arrested
Youth-led protests in Morocco, organized primarily by the GenZ 212 group, have escalated into violent clashes with security forces, resulting in at least two deaths, hundreds of injuries, and over 400 arrests. The protests, which began as calls for improved healthcare, education, and social services, have turned violent in multiple cities including Agadir, Rabat, Oujda, and Casablanca, with demonstrators using knives, Molotov cocktails, and stones against police. Authorities reported that security forces used firearms in self-defense after protesters attempted to storm police stations and seize weapons, leading to the fatalities. The unrest has caused significant property damage, including the torching of vehicles, government buildings, banks, and shops. While GenZ 212 has expressed regret over the violence and insists on peaceful protest, the movement has rapidly grown, mobilizing support via social media platforms like TikTok, Instagram, and Discord. The Moroccan government has vowed to enforce law and order while upholding the right to protest within legal limits, amid widespread criticism over the government's prioritization of World Cup infrastructure over social welfare.
