Protesters bang pots, demand action on Spain’s housing crisis | ABC NEWS
Hundreds have gathered across Spain for pot-banging protests, demanding political action to address the country’s housing crisis.
The demonstrations were ignited last week by the dramatic eviction of an 87-year-old woman from her Madrid home of more than seven decades.
Her case highlighted mounting pressure on long-term tenants in major cities and tourist hotspots, where soaring rents, gentrification and a shortage of affordable housing have fuelled social and political unrest.
