A panda camped. Housing Institute website hacked

The website of the Institute of Housing and Urban Rehabilitation (IHRU) was hacked, replacing original images with protest-related visuals. The changes occurred late Wednesday, and by Thursday noon, the original images had not been restored. One altered image featured a panda in a tent surrounded by protest signs. This incident coincides with ongoing protests against the housing crisis in Portugal, which began in Porto and spread to Lisbon and other cities. Demonstrators are calling for changes to rental laws and affordable housing measures. The police intervened to disperse protesters, resulting in injuries on both sides.
