Thousands of people flooded the streets of Spain's largest cities on Sunday in a massive wave of solidarity marking International Women's Day. The demonstrations condemned both domestic violence against women and the escalating conflict in the Middle East. The protests represented a significant show of public sentiment linking gender-based violence with broader issues of war and conflict, as Spanish citizens used the annual women's rights observance to voice opposition to violence both at home and abroad.
