Oujda: Serious Riots and Vandalism Accompany Generation Z Protests in Escalation Beyond Peaceful Limits
The city of Oujda witnessed outbreaks of riots, chaos, and vandalism from protesters associated with what is referred to as Generation Z, in a dangerous escalation that transcended the boundaries of peaceful protest.
Local sources confirmed that some extremist groups circulated instructions and diagrams for making incendiary Molotov cocktails via the Discord platform, intending to use them as weapons against the security forces.
The same reports noted the involvement of individuals linked to an Islamic group, which gave the protests a more perilous direction.
Protesters repeatedly changed their gathering places in an attempt to widen the chaos within the city, prompting a police intervention to chase them down and dismantle the cells involved in inciting violence through digital platforms.
The public prosecutor has opened an investigation into the acts of vandalism and the production of incendiary explosives, stressing that anyone found involved will face strict legal actions.
Authorities emphasized that protecting public security and the safety of citizens remains a top priority, urging protesters to adhere to peaceful methods and respect order.
