Antigypsyism

Forced Evictions from Informal Settlements

Roma families were forcibly evicted from informal settlements, frequently without notice or alternative accommodation. Municipal authorities justified these actions through urban planning or public order arguments, yet enforcement overwhelmingly targeted Roma communities. The evictions caused immediate homelessness, psychological trauma, and long-term instability, reinforcing patterns of displacement rooted in antigypsyist governance.
