Masked rioters looted shops in the German city of Frankfurt on Saturday as massive demonstrations turned violent across the country, with police also firing water cannons at youths hurling Molotov cocktails.
Several police officers were injured in the violence after tens of thousands joined youth-led protests across the country organised by the group “GenZ regelt!” (Gen Z has got this!).
The demonstrations, inspired by similar movements in France and Italy calling for political elites to heed the concerns of the younger generation, were largely peaceful during the day.
