Overview

• Assembly president Enrique Ossorio ordered a Palestinian flag removed from the empty seat of Más Madrid deputy Jimena González, who is reported to be aboard the flotilla.
• Más Madrid refused to take down the flag and initially blocked chamber staff, until a worker reached the seat from the opposite side and removed it.
• Proceedings descended into repeated interruptions and warnings of expulsion, and Ossorio withdrew opposition leader Manuela Bergerot’s turn to speak.
• Regional president Isabel Díaz Ayuso escalated tensions with remarks linking the flotilla to Bildu, while PP deputies hurled insults such as calling Más Madrid “Hamás Madrid.”
• Opposition members questioned the absence of a cited rule banning emblems and said they are considering legal action over Ayuso’s comments.
