A woman holds placards, and the one on the right reads 'Stop violence'. The Madagascan community of Toulouse gathers in Toulouse, France, on October 4, 2025, against the policies of Madagascar President Andry Rajoelina and his government, which protesters deem corrupt. In Madagascar, President Rajoelina resigns, but Madagascar Gen Z protesters also demand his resignation. Despite Madagascar's significant mineral wealth, biodiversity, and agricultural land, the Indian Ocean island nation is among the poorest countries in the world. At least 22 people are killed and more than 100 injured in the first few days of the protests. Protests grow since last week into the largest wave of unrest Madagascar has seen in years, tapping into widespread discontent with high levels of poverty and corruption.
