- An encampment under the C‑31 bridge remains with more than 80 tents, as some evictees fear short stays, distance from jobs, or losing belongings.
- Badalona Acull and other groups criticize the emergency operation as rushed and poorly explained and urge authorities to keep working on site rather than wind down support.
- Opposition parties in the city council accuse Mayor Xavier García Albiol of mishandling the response and lacking humanity, pointing to the closure of the Can Bofí Vell shelter.
