The demonstration for the right to housing held in Barcelona on Monday ended in disturbances in the city centre, with 13 people arrested, including a minor, and 30 Catalan police officers (Mossos) slightly injured, according to the latest police figures released early on Tuesday.
The mobilisation brought together around 20,000 people, according to the Guàrdia Urbana, and 120,000, according to the organisers. The protest, called by the Sindicat de Llogateres tenants' union together with other organisations defending the right to housing, had been postponed due to a red weather alert and the heavy rains that hit Catalonia over the weekend.
