Illa promises to go all the way to find out "who is behind" the disturbances in Barcelona
Salvador Illa, president of the Generalitat, has vowed to thoroughly investigate the recent riots in Barcelona, promising to identify those responsible for organizing the disturbances. The unrest, which involved significant vandalism and attacks on police, was reportedly fueled by social media calls, particularly on TikTok, from an anonymous group named Blocus. The police have arrested 128 individuals, many of whom are minors, and are collaborating with other European forces to monitor similar calls for protests in other cities. Opposition parties are criticizing the government's handling of the situation, demanding accountability and explanations from the Interior Minister. They express concerns about the potential influence of external factors in the unrest, drawing parallels to recent events in France.
