A mass protest took place in Budapest over a scandal involving the abuse of children at a state center for minors. Thousands of Hungarians took to the streets, demanding the resignation of Prime Minister Viktor Orbán. Demonstrators carried banners calling for 'Protect the Children!' and symbolic items supporting the victims of violence.
The Hungarian prosecution announced the detention of seven people in the case and the transfer of five correctional institutions under police supervision. The investigation also covers suspicions of organizing prostitution, money laundering, and human trafficking. While the Prime Minister condemned the abuse, protesters insist on significant reforms in the juvenile detention system.
