Tens of thousands of people from the northern Basque Country have formed a line that stretched over 124 miles to demand a ballot on secession from Spain.
Protesters held hands or extended scarves between themselves to form the human chain, which connected the cities of San Sebastian, Bilbao and regional capital Vitoria.
The scarves bore the slogan “It’s in our hands” written in Basque.
The demonstration took place just over a month since Basque militant group Eta announced its dissolution.
Spain has refused to allow an official referendum on secession by the Catalonia region, whose leaders tried and failed to declare independence last year.
