Spain: Campaign groups plan to demonstrate in central Barcelona Nov. 23

Campaign groups to rally in Placa Universitat, Barcelona, from 17:00 Nov. 23. Housing activists, renters' associations, and labor unions will demand cheaper accommodation in the city. Previous events have attracted around 2,000 attendees. Similar or greater numbers are likely Nov. 23, as the campaign is increasing its momentum.

Local authorities will almost certainly deploy additional police to monitor the demonstration. Large crowds and associated security measures will likely prompt localized transport disruptions. Public transport routes may be canceled or diverted. The action is likely to pass off peacefully.
