Madagascar President Andry Rajoelina was removed from office by a vote of parliament on Oct. 14, following a youth-led rebellion and calls for his resignation.

A colonel of Madagascar’s elite armed forces said on Oct. 14 that the country’s military had taken control of the government, following weeks of protests over intermittent cuts to water supplies and electricity.
