摘要

Workers across Spain held a nationwide general strike on November 11, 2026, protesting a severe housing shortage and rising rents, which was confirmed. Spain's two largest unions called for a 24-hour general strike on November 11, 2026, which was also confirmed. It is partially confirmed that millions of workers participated in the strike demanding government action on housing, though some details remain unverified. Similarly, it is partially confirmed that around 4 million people joined nationwide rallies on November 12, 2026, calling for higher wages, lower rents, and price controls, but some specifics are not fully confirmed. There is not enough evidence to verify the claim that the Marxist group Coordinadora Juvenil Socialista planned to support the nationwide strike focused on housing, wages, and state authoritarianism on November 10, 2026.
