In Nepal, the Prime Minister K.P. Sharma Oli has resigned amid anti-corruption demonstrations that continue to roil the country. At least 19 people were killed and over 100 injured Monday as authorities cracked down on the protests, with police firing rubber-coated bullets and tear gas at protesters trying to storm the Parliament in Kathmandu. Organizers dubbed the protests “demonstrations by Gen Z,” as young people took to the streets to condemn government corruption — and a ban on social media platforms that has since been lifted.

Samundra Pokharel: “Every corruption in the country, from the local level to federal level, all the Nepalese citizens are fed up of corruption. Every youth are going outside the country. So we want to protect our youth and make the country’s economy better. For that, we need a new youth, new power and new politicians who are well educated to move the country forward.”
