Protests in Madagascar, initiated due to poor living conditions, have escalated, and soldiers from the elite unit CAPSAT are calling for a revolt against the government. President Rajoelina stated that he is facing an illegal attempt to seize power, while protesters are demanding his resignation. With a predominantly young population, discontent has grown due to shortages of water and electricity. The situation has led to international interventions, including the suspension of Air France-KLM flights.
