Tens of thousands of demonstrators rallied in cities across Spain on Sunday, demanding strict curbs on soaring urban rents. Protesters condemned sharply inflated rental prices in major metropolitan areas and called on the government to intervene. The demonstrations come amid a growing housing affordability crisis that has pushed rent costs beyond the reach of many residents, making housing one of the country's most pressing political issues.
Why now: Rising rents and housing affordability are fuelling public anger and political debate in Spain.
