· Barcelona, ESP

Protesters in Barcelona forced many shops to close their doors during a nationwide general strike on Wednesday, which was held to protest the housing crisis and rising living costs. Demonstrators surrounded major stores in Plaza de Catalunya and on La Rambla, prompting shop owners to lower their metal shutters amid vandalism and graffiti on storefronts. The general strike, the first of its kind in Spain in 14 years, comes two weeks before the snap general election scheduled for November 29.
