Overview

• Four members of Covite peacefully entered a Sare-organized demonstration in Pamplona on May 18, 2025, displaying slogans against impunity and privileges for ETA prisoners.
• Sare's rally marked the culmination of its 'Hasta completar el puzzle' campaign, which toured Basque towns to demand the early release of ETA inmates under exception laws.
• The National Police intervened to maintain separation between the groups, ensuring no incidents occurred during the tense confrontation.
• Covite criticized penitentiary policies granting ETA prisoners third-degree privileges without requiring documented repentance, calling these privileges the true exceptionality.
• The victims' group has previously used 'ekintza' actions, reclaiming a term associated with ETA, to challenge pro-ETA narratives and emphasize victims' perspectives.
