More than 45,000 students across Germany joined protests against plans for compulsory military service, with demonstrations held in over 100 cities. The protests began after the Defense Ministry started calling 18-year-old men for medical screenings under a new military service law. While the system remains voluntary, students argue the government is moving toward a gradual return of conscription.
