Portuguese police cleared protest camps in Lisbon and Porto on October 20, 2026, arresting 55 individuals who refused to vacate public squares occupied due to a severe housing crisis [1][2][5]. This marks a significant escalation in ongoing demonstrations against soaring housing costs and new rental market reforms in Portugal [4][6][7].

The clashes highlight the growing tension between Portuguese citizens struggling with housing affordability and a government seeking to enforce public order while addressing a crisis where rents in Lisbon alone exceed the average salary by 16% [13].

## What the records show
On October 20, 2026, Portuguese police conducted dawn operations in Lisbon's Rossio Square and Porto's Dom João I Square, clearing protest camps established against the country's housing crisis [4][5]. Police arrested 55 people for civil disobedience after they refused to leave voluntarily, and seized 228 camping structures [1][5]. Public Security Police Superintendent Sergio Soares characterized the eviction as “calm, proportionate and appropriate” [2][9]. However, Carla Valadao, a spokesperson for the Lisbon camp, called the police action “very aggressive” [2][4]. Protesters claimed around 30 demonstrators were injured and arrested in Lisbon, contradicting police reports of two minor injuries [1][2][5]. In Lisbon, protesters resisted by forming human chains and throwing objects, while most in Porto vacated voluntarily [5][8].

This followed a previous violent intervention on October 15 in Porto, where police cleared a re-established camp that Movimento pela Habitação had set up on October 10 [10][12][13]. That incident led to 37 reported injuries, including two serious, according to the Housing Movement, with Santo António Hospital confirming seven admissions [10][12]. Amnesty International called for an independent investigation into the alleged excessive force used [13].

Portugal's housing crisis is severe, with purchase prices and new lease rents almost doubling since 2017, exacerbated by reforms in the “Mais Habitação” program making evictions easier and ending rent caps [4][6][7][14].

## What changed
The police actions on October 20 temporarily ended the physical occupation of central squares in Lisbon and Porto, leading to arrests and injuries among protesters [1][2][5]. Prime Minister Luís Montenegro asked protesters to “not be selfish” regarding public order and cautioned against “importing into Portugal climates of instability and protest” [15][17]. For housing rights activists, the evictions fueled further resolve, with many returning to the squares hours later and threatening to occupy the Prime Minister's home [5][6]. Porto's Mayor, Pedro Duarte, stated his intention to take an “absolutely uncompromising approach” against those setting up tents [11]. On October 23, Minister for Internal Administration José Luís Carneiro affirmed that “the camps are over” for illegal occupations [17].

## What we could not confirm
The exact number of injuries on October 20 remains unclear, with police reporting two minor injuries and protesters claiming around 30 in Lisbon [1][2][5].
