Maricarmen Abascal, femeia care a stârnit protestele din Spania, a murit

Maricarmen Abascal, a prominent figure in Spain's housing rights protests, passed away after being forcibly evicted from her home. Her death has sparked renewed calls for housing justice. Following her eviction on September 23, Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez attempted to implement decrees to protect vulnerable families from eviction, but faced political backlash. Abascal, 87, had lived in her apartment for over 70 years, paying a low rent due to an old contract. Her eviction highlighted the ongoing housing crisis in Spain, with rising rents pushing out long-term residents. The Tenant Union is considering legal action against the real estate company involved in her eviction.
