Anti-government demonstrations entered their tenth day on Thursday, sparking violent clashes in parliament between ruling Socialist Party and opposition MPs over police conduct during the unrest. Protesters, mostly students, rallied against education costs, corruption, and Prime Minister Edi Rama's leadership, chanting 'No Rama, no Berisha' to reject both major parties.
Officials report hundreds injured in street battles involving tear gas and rocks, as Rama offers dialogue but refuses to resign, highlighting a standoff between youth demands for renewal and the entrenched establishment.

Protesters in Albania dangled a croissant on a fishing hook toward the police cordon. 🤣 The pastry became a protest symbol after two officers were seen taking croissants from a kiosk that was wrecked during the protests. https://t.co/qJdhvadE0C
