Why Gen Z protests have forced the president to sack his government

Thousands of Gen Z-led protesters in Madagascar have taken to the streets, demanding political change and protesting against power shortages and corruption. The demonstrations, the largest in over 15 years, led President Andry Rajoelina to sack his government, but protests continue. The unrest has resulted in casualties and injuries, though government figures differ from UN reports. Activists blame corruption for the crisis, while civil society groups call for dialogue. The protesters are demanding the president's resignation and accountability for alleged killings.
