Protests by Moroccan youths demanding better healthcare and education turned violent in late September 2025. Demonstrators clashed with police in cities like Casablanca, Rabat, and Agadir. Some protesters blocked highways and threw stones. Police arrested many, and some protests led to property damage, including burning vehicles and a bank. A 19-year-old student was seriously injured by a police vehicle. The government said it will listen to youth demands and praised its security response. The protests are the largest in Morocco in years and show growing frustration among young people. (Updated 2 Oct 2025, 03:35 IST; source: link)
