An 87-year-old woman whose eviction sparked protests in Spain is returning home

María del Carmen Abascal's case has drawn tens of thousands of people to the streets in recent days and led the Spanish government to present measures to address the country's housing crisis.

What the coverage shows

All four outlets frame the story around the 87-year-old woman’s eviction as the focal point of Spain’s housing-crisis protests. NPR alone foregrounds the scale of the Madrid demonstrations and overnight camping in Puerta del Sol, while Reuters and South China Morning Post both emphasize the coalition government’s response with proposals including banning evictions until 2030. South China Morning Post is also the only outlet to say she accepted an offer to return home, and Al Jazeera alone says the real estate firm backed down and restored her old rent.
