Portugal Protests Rapid Rise in Housing Prices
Tens of thousands of people in Portugal held a protest against the rapid rise in housing prices. Marches took place in more than 30 cities and settlements across the country. The action, held under the slogan "We will not allow them to take away our right to housing", was attended by both teenagers and pensioners. Activists demand a cap on rent increases, stronger legal protection of tenants against eviction, and more affordable housing.
