HIBAPRESS – Follow-up
Algerians are turning their attention to Friday, October 3rd, 2025, after a youth group calling itself "Collectif GenZ213" called for a demonstration, in a move they consider an attempt to revive the spirit of the popular movement that the country witnessed in 2019.
The call to protest this Friday has spread widely across social media platforms and has received significant interaction, especially among young people who represent the largest percentage of Algerian society. This call comes against the backdrop of difficult social and economic conditions experienced by Algerians, most notably rising prices, declining purchasing power, and rising unemployment rates, especially among young people and degree holders. Observers believe that these factors have contributed to creating a state of tension that has prompted many Algerians to think about returning to the streets in order to express their just and legitimate demands. Some analysts believe that the "Collectif GenZ213" call expresses the awareness of a new generation that is increasingly involved in the digital space and seeks to invest in these platforms for mobilization and organization.
