Protests erupt in Granada after eviction of 87-year-old woman in Madrid

Protesters gathered outside Granada city hall on Thursday in support of 87-year-old Maricarmen Abascal, who was evicted from her Madrid apartment on September 23. UGC footage shows large crowds rallying in the city, including at a student protest.

Demonstrations in support of Abascal were also held in other parts of Spain, reflecting wider anger over the country’s rising housing costs. Her eviction has become a focal point for protests over housing affordability and the difficulties faced by older tenants.
