Mass Protests Erupt Across Europe, Israeli Embassy Temporarily Closes in Albania

Mass protests and riots occurred in France, Belgium, Italy, Albania, and Portugal on October 17, driven by various domestic issues like cost of living and education. Some demonstrations in Italy and Albania turned anti-Israeli, leading to flag burnings and the temporary closure of the Israeli embassy in Tirana due to security threats. France saw the largest turnout with hundreds of thousands protesting, resulting in hundreds of arrests. While coordinated, the protests largely stemmed from separate national concerns.
