Generation Z has taken place in 34 German cities, with young protesters speaking out against state policies. Tens of thousands of young people across Germany took to the streets as part of a coordinated youth demonstration organized by the group's activist Janet Zegelt (Gen Z takes the initiative). The demonstration covered more than 30 major cities, including Berlin, Frankfurt, Munich, Cologne and Burg. The main argument of the protests is the categorical rejection of the government's plans to restore the mandatory military service; The protesters carry flags with slogans such as "Education, not bombs" and "#33". Demonstrators call for urgent public investments in education (immunized schools, shortage of teachers). Rapidly rising prices, inflation and housing inaccessibility have led many students to live in poverty.
