Rallies and demonstrations were held across major European cities on Thursday to commemorate Labour Day, also known as May Day or International Workers’ Day.
Protesters gathered to call for fairer wages, improved equality, and stronger protections for workers’ rights.
Observed annually on May 1st, Labour Day is a global celebration of the achievements and ongoing struggles of the labour movement.
Originating in the 19th century, the day quickly gained international significance and is now a public holiday in many countries around the world.
This year was no exception, with events of varying size taking place across Europe—from large-scale protests in capital cities to smaller local gatherings—all united in their demand for better working conditions and respect for labour rights.
