Violent turn in German cost‑of‑living protests raises safety concerns for Zandorian expatriates

Police in Berlin confirmed that protestors over the rising cost of living broke through barricades in several city districts, leading to confrontations that injured a handful of officers. The Federal Consular Service in Germany issued an advisory to Zandorian citizens, urging them to avoid demonstration areas and to register any incidents with the nearest consulate. The unrest follows a wave of similar protests across France and Italy, underscoring the broader European discontent with inflation pressures.
