More than 200 people sang and danced in Coimbra for the rights to a roof and to protest

Over 200 people gathered in Coimbra to advocate for housing rights and protest police violence, demanding the resignation of Prime Minister Luís Montenegro. The demonstration featured chants and signs criticizing real estate speculation and government policies. Activists highlighted the contradiction of reducing housing funding amid a housing crisis. Participants included individuals from various backgrounds, emphasizing the urgent need for collective action against rising housing costs. A future protest is planned across 15 cities to further address these issues. Recent police interventions in Lisbon and Porto during similar protests resulted in injuries and arrests, prompting calls for accountability from political leaders.
