Europe2 sources2 countries🔦 Under-reported47m ago
Tens of thousands of protesters have taken to the streets in Madrid, Spain, to demonstrate against the national housing crisis. The demonstrations were triggered by the recent eviction of an 87-year-old woman, María del Carmen Abascal, whose case has become a focal point for public outcry regarding tenant rights and housing security.
In response to the widespread protests and the attention surrounding the eviction, the Spanish government has introduced new measures aimed at addressing the housing shortage. Protesters are specifically calling for enhanced tenant protections, anti-fraud regulations, and a formal ban on evictions that do not provide alternative housing for the displaced.
