Protesters in Spain called on Sunday to end the monarchy after the sudden departure of former King Juan Carlos from the country days ago, amid a corruption scandal.
Dozens of people demonstrated in Valencia yesterday, and others are planning to demonstrate in Mallorca this week during King Felipe's visit to the island.

And Spanish media reported that Carlos is now staying in one of the most expensive hotels in the world in the Emirati capital, Abu Dhabi.
The "ABC" newspaper, loyal to the royal family, revealed that Carlos boarded a private plane on Monday, from Vigo in the northwest of the country with one assistant and four bodyguards, and seven hours later the plane landed at a commercial airport in the UAE capital.
A poll conducted by the Sigmadus Foundation for Ilhechimundo newspaper showed that 63.3% of those polled expressed their dissatisfaction with the departure of the former king, while 27.2% supported his departure.
The British newspaper The Times reported that Carlos’s life, which began in exile, may also end with him “drowning” his son, King Felipe VI. Doubt.
It is noteworthy that in June, the Spanish Supreme Court opened a preliminary investigation into Carlos' involvement in a contract for a high-speed railway in Saudi Arabia, after the Swiss newspaper La Tribune de Geneva reported that he had received $ 100 million from the late King of Saudi Arabia, and Switzerland also opened an investigation into the incident. .
