Albanian lawmakers clashed violently in parliament as widespread protests continued to roil the country for a tenth consecutive day.
High school and university students calling for education reform have swelled broader anti-government protests demanding the resignation of Socialist Prime Minister Edi Rama.
The violence in the streets spilled over into the country’s parliament on Thursday (October 22), with opposition members and the ruling party scuffling with each other, hurling objects and ripping down microphones.
These latest protests follow months of demonstrations from the so-called Flamingo Movement against a luxury development by Jared Kushner, President Donald Trump’s son-in-law.
