25.10.2026 ⇢ The Day Police Detained 128 After Barcelona Looting
⌨

Overnight unrest in central Barcelona dominated coverage as the toll rose from around 100 to 128 arrests, 72 of them minors, with 14 officers injured, some 20 shops looted and barricades burned. Police described very young looters mobilized through TikTok and WhatsApp groups and surprised by extreme violence.

Feijóo turned the riots into campaign material, accusing Sánchez of playing with fire and resisting leaving power with violence, a claim other outlets flagged as unproven. Sánchez, in an interview, warned a PP-Vox government would set Spain back 50 years and called the Ábalos case his biggest error, while Madrid government delegate Francisco Martín resigned after being left off PSOE lists for 29-N.

Thousands joined the Mujeres Caballas march in Madrid demanding normality in Ceuta, as a bus plunged down an embankment in Fogars de Montclús leaving some 80 injured.
