Third Eviction of Family with Minors in Ten Days Hits Vitoria-Gasteiz

• A family with two children has been evicted from their home in the San Martín neighborhood of Gasteiz.
• This marks the third eviction of a family with minors in the city within a ten-day period.
• The eviction was executed due to contract expiration, leaving the family without an alternative housing solution.

Eviction Details

• The affected resident, Valentine, had lived in the home for 15 years and had been searching for new housing for three years with support from her children's school and friends.
• The Socialist Housing Union (Sindicato Socialista de Vivienda) condemned the incident, emphasizing that such cases represent the reality faced daily by working-class families despite government claims of addressing the housing crisis.

Broader Context and Political Stagnation

• Recent legislative attempts to pass housing decrees in the Spanish Congress have failed due to a lack of political support, including from the PNV.
• Other regions are experiencing similar crises; in late September, a family in Basauri was evicted without alternative housing, forced to spend their first night on the street.
• Housing rights advocates argue that existing government protections fail to cover all eviction scenarios and do not guarantee actual alternative accommodation.
