Madrid protesters call for tenant protections
Widespread protests took place in Madrid focusing on the housing crisis, as hundreds of protesters camped out in Puerta del Sol Square demanding tenant protections after an 87-year-old woman was evicted from her home, where she had lived most of her life. Approximately 100 tents gathered in front of the Madrid city hall to protest the soaring rental prices, which have doubled over the past decade and led to an increase in homelessness. The Spanish government responded by saying it would introduce legislation to strengthen tenants' rights, with estimates of the number of participants varying between 25,000 and 300,000 people.
