Spain Protests Erupt After Parliament Rejects Housing Bill

Tens of thousands rallied across Spain after parliament rejected two government decrees aimed at tackling the housing crisis. The measures would have halted evictions of vulnerable tenants and made leases automatically renewable. Protests began after an 87-year-old woman was evicted from her Madrid home of 70 years. Reports suggest PM Pedro Sanchez could call snap elections as early as November.
