Our neighbors in Badalona were violently evicted from the B9 warehouse on December 17th, 2025. This was the largest eviction in Catalan history, and one of the largest in Spanish history as well, sending 400 people onto the street. The warehouse had been completely abandoned, and even now there are no plans to use it. Badalona’s mayor, Xavier García Albiol, ordered this eviction as a show of force and as part of his racist, anti-immigration policies.
