Clashes between protesters and the police in Switzerland On the night between October 31 and November 1, several hundred people took to the streets of Zurich. The action under the slogan "We are fed up - also in Switzerland" ("We are fed up - also in Switzerland") was related to youth demonstrations in France and Germany. Their members oppose the increase in the cost of living, problems in education, the lack of affordable housing and cuts in social spending. In the Langstrasse area, protesters set garbage containers on fire and damaged cars and shop windows. The police used water cannons, tear gas and rubber bullets. Similar events took place in Basel, where about 150 people participated in the rally. There were also arsons and clashes with police officers. The circumstances of the incident and the extent of the material damage are determined.
