Yes. Associated Press reporting on September 27, 2026, said protesters outraged by the eviction of 87-year-old María del Carmen Abascal (known as Maricarmen) camped overnight in Madrid’s Puerta del Sol, with more demonstrators joining on Sunday for a second day of housing protests. Tens of thousands had marched Saturday after Abascal was removed on September 23 from a Retiro apartment where she had lived for more than seven decades; organizers demanded stronger tenant protections and a ban on evictions when alternative housing is unavailable.
