Moroccan Youth Protests Spark Nationwide Detentions Over Health Education
Youth-led protests demanding improvements in Morocco's public health and education systems have spread across several cities including Rabat, Casablanca, and Agadir, with dozens detained by authorities amid heavy security crackdowns. Organized primarily through social media platforms by groups such as GenZ 212 and Morocco Youth Voices, these demonstrations highlight widespread frustration over poor hospital conditions, unemployment, and socio-economic disparities. The government, led by Prime Minister Aziz Akhannouch, who also serves as Agadir's mayor, denies that preparations for the 2030 World Cup have drained resources and insists reforms and hospital upgrades are underway. Political opposition, notably the Moroccan Liberal Party, holds the government responsible for the unrest, calling for immediate political dialogue and the resignation of the head of government to restore public trust. The protests have evoked strong reactions on social media and from political groups condemning the arrests and demanding respect for constitutional rights to peaceful assembly. This wave of unrest echoes similar youth-led protests in other countries, reflecting broader regional discontent with governance and social services.
