Protests across Germany, initially focused on economic grievances and conscription, have escalated into widespread violence, looting, and clashes with police in at least 34 cities, including Frankfurt, Berlin, Cologne, and Hamburg. The unrest is primarily attributed to Gen Z participants, with some government officials claiming migrant involvement. The scale and intensity of the violence, including Molotov cocktails and police injuries, indicate a significant breakdown of public order.
