Mass strike in Spain: Millions protest against expensive housing and low wages.
According to the trade unions, about 4 million Spaniards have started a general strike because of the unaffordability of housing, Reuters reports. The average rent in the country stands at 1,176 euros - almost 99% of a young person's monthly salary.
This is the first general strike in Spain since 2012.
The protests were supported by the largest trade unions UGT and CCOO, as well as tenants' associations opposing rising housing prices and evictions.
The housing crisis in Israel reaches 750,000 homes and by 2028 may exceed one million.
The police reported 40 arrests and 476 incidents, including blocking businesses and burning garbage containers.
