Thousands marched in Valencia and other Spanish cities to express their anger over the authorities’ handling of devastating floods that killed at least 220 people. Protesters criticized the late warning alerts and slow recovery efforts, calling for the resignation of regional president Carlos Mazon and Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez. Amid the uproar, many locals took initiative for cleanup efforts, chanting, “Only the people save the people.” As cleanup operations continue, residents demand accountability from both regional and national officials for their perceived mismanagement during the crisis.
