One month after the devastating flood disaster in Valencia that claimed 230 lives, tens of thousands protested against authorities’ crisis management. Demonstrators called for the resignation of Regional President Carlos Mazón and criticized the national government led by Pedro Sánchez for inadequate disaster response and late warnings. As clean-up efforts continue, residents remain frustrated over prolonged recovery and political blame-shifting amidst the ongoing crisis. Journalist Julia Macher noted that political disputes are hindering the return to normality for the affected communities.
