Holidaymakers in Barcelona have been caught in the crossfire of an unusual protest as demonstrators with water guns targeted diners in the city’s Las Ramblas district.
The incident on Saturday was part of a larger rally against mass tourism involving around 2,800 people under the banner “Enough! Let’s put limits on tourism”. Protesters are calling for a reduction in the number of foreigners visiting the Catalan city and for it to follow a sustainable model of tourism.
