On Tuesday, DANA in the Valencian Community devastated everything, including the lives of more than 140 people (data update on Thursday afternoon) – another three have died in Castilla-La Mancha and Andalusia, where the temporary, especially in Cádiz and Málaga—and there are dozens of missing people in the province of Valencia, in Letur (Albacete) and in Cuenca. It has left floods, considerable material and personal damage in its wake, and devastating images throughout the region and also in other communities. It is already one of the worst natural disasters in recent decades in Spain and the worst cold drop of the 21st century.
On Tuesday at 12:20 noon, the State Emergency Coordination Center warns of a worrying increase in water flow. At 1:00 p.m., the president of the Valencian Generalitat, Carlos Mazón (PP), came out to say that there is no danger and that at 6:00 p.m. DANA will have subsided in Valencia. At that time the universal flood had already broken out. Mazón did not come out again. The Valencia Civil Protection alarm, dependent on its government, went off at 8:12 p.m., when thousands of people were already trapped. A year earlier, the Monzón government decided to suppress the Valencian Emergency Unit. You can see the program on video:
In this program we want to tell what happened and what is known so far, what has gone wrong in the management of this catastrophe, whether political and business responsibilities can be pointed out, how the affected people are doing. Laura Martinez, companion of the Valencia edition of our associated media ElDiario.es, with Ruben del Campo, spokesperson for the State Meteorological Agency AEMET and Pilar de Vera, general secretary of the Federation of Citizen Services of the Valencia Country.
There have also been many times crying out against companies that forced their employees to go to work despite the alarms and extreme alerts, an issue that we have Antonio Ruiz from CNT Valencia. And we also talk about climate change and global warming and how it influences this type of extreme phenomena with colleagues from The ClimateLa Marea magazine, a reference in global warming and with Juan Borderajournalist specialized in climate change and deputy of the Valencian Cortes for Compromís.
