Protesters arriving at Rossio without tents, but with camping bags and sleeping bags

Protesters have gathered at Rossio in Lisbon, equipped with camping gear, to continue their demonstrations against the housing crisis. Despite police intervention, they plan to set up tents again. The protests, which began in Porto on October 10, have spread to other cities following the parliamentary approval of a new rental law. Activists are calling for measures to address the housing crisis, control essential goods prices, and impose taxes on large corporate profits. Recent clashes resulted in injuries among protesters and police, with ongoing arrests. Organizers vow to persist in their demonstrations.
