Thousands of protesters gathered in Lisbon to demand housing rights, urging the government to abandon a rental law they believe worsens the housing crisis. The demonstration took place in Rossio Square, with organizers claiming thousands attended, although police did not provide estimates. Protests have escalated recently, with criticism aimed at police for their handling of previous demonstrations. Portugal faces a severe housing crisis, particularly affecting young people, with housing prices and rents having doubled since 2017. These protests reflect a broader trend across Europe, where rising living costs have sparked similar movements.
