Some needed context: When they say "uninhabited island", it is uninhabited because the Albanian military had domain over it, not because no Albanians want to live there.

Good that they're talking to someone from Citizens.al Most of the English language EU and North American media coverage of this uses the same footage, so the real difference is who they talk to additionally. This is one of the best ones to watch because they're talking to someone who's good at giving the context.

Revolta nuk ndalet/ Protesta e 9-të masive për dorëheqjen e Ramës. Mijëra qytetarë te kryeministria
"The original trigger was local and visual: barbed-wire fences, private security forces and images of a protester being dragged away from the Zvërnec area. But the reaction quickly became national. For many Albanians, the episode touched older memories of exclusion, state arrogance and closed decision-making. It also revived current concerns over how public land, protected areas and strategic investments are managed in a country where corruption, political polarization and the influence of narrow economic interests remain persistent issues."

Albanian media is mostly captured by oligarchs so one way supporters outside Albania can help is by watching & liking outside media coverage of protests (and any good analysis thereof) so world media is incentivized to keep covering this. Albania does not usually get covered by outside media.

Live.
There are a number of different chants that repeat, but one of the easiest ones to recognize is "Rama n' burg, Berisha n'burg". Roughly, it's "Rama to jail, Berisha to jail "Rama is current PM and Berisha is the previous PM. They are from opposite main parties. The chant points out that this protest is not a party protest - all corruption must go.

Sot protesta e 15 në Tiranë/ “Shqipëri e Re”, shqiptarët në revoltë kundër Ramës: Jep dorëheqjen!
"At the same time, the PR agency states that the development is being led by a company called Sazan Real Estate Development LLC (SRED), about which the agency provides virtually no information other than the identity of its chief executive.
The agency identifies Asher Abehsera, a partner of Jared Kushner in several previous business ventures, as CEO of SRED and includes a statement from him. Abehsera promises a "world-class destination," "responsible stewardship," "environmental enhancement," and respect for the "ongoing public and institutional processes.""
