Thousands of Spaniards protest housing crisis

Thousands marched in Madrid to protest the housing crisis following the eviction of elderly woman Maricarmen Abascal, who had lived in her home her entire life, ahead of the upcoming general elections in 2027. The incident of her eviction by police brought renewed attention to rising housing costs and the worsening eviction problem. Authorities estimate the turnout at around 25,000, while organizers believe the number was as high as 300,000. Abascal emphasized the importance of making her case a lesson to prevent similar situations in the future. Meanwhile, pressures on the government to pass tenant protection laws—such as renewing leases and imposing restrictions on evictions—are increasing, though it remains uncertain whether Parliament will agree to such measures.
