Thousands of students marched through Albania's capital on Friday, breaking windows and traffic lights on the fourth day of protests demanding Prime Minister Edi Rama resign. The violent demonstrations follow months of peaceful rallies over corruption and the sale of coastal land to a luxury resort backed by the family of United States figures. The unrest threatens Rama's 2028 target for European Union accession.
