In Brussels, around 20 people, mostly minors, were arrested following riots that broke out during a peaceful union march. The unrest involved teenagers throwing stones, fireworks, and bottles at law enforcement officers, setting fires to bicycles and scooters, and smashing store windows. Police used water cannons and tear gas to disperse the protesters. The riots were sparked by education reforms in Belgium, including budget cuts leading to teacher layoffs and increased tuition fees.
