María del Carmen Abascal, an 87-year-old woman in Spain, is returning home following her high-profile eviction last week. Her forced removal on a stretcher from her apartment required hospitalization and triggered protests by hundreds of people who remained camped out in support.

In response to the housing crisis and the public outcry surrounding the case, Spain's coalition government agreed on new legislative proposals. These include a ban on certain evictions until 2030, marking a significant policy shift aimed at addressing housing vulnerabilities highlighted by the incident.
