Anarchists protest against tourist invasion in Spain

An anti-tourism campaign in Spain hopes to discourage tourists from visiting the country. Masked men of the leftist youth movement Arran Jovent slashed tires of a tourist bus in Barcelona. In another stunt, several protesters climbed yachts in Mallorca and threw confetti at tourists in a restaurant. The group called the protests not vandalism, but self-defence. They said locals are driven out of tourist hot spots and suffer from terrible living conditions. A demonstration is planned in San Sebastian on August 17 by another left-wing group. Aug 5, 2017
