In a tense visit to Paiporta, Spain, King Felipe VI and Queen Letizia faced a hostile reception marked by mud-throwing and insults from angry locals.

The visit, intended to show solidarity with the community affected by recent storms, was marred by violence, leading to the evacuation of Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez for security reasons.

The government attributes the unrest to organized far-right groups, accusing them of exploiting public discontent to disrupt the visit.

Despite the chaos, the royal couple remained to listen to the grievances of the residents, while Sánchez's departure drew criticism from some quarters, including Victoria Federica, the King's niece, who publicly defended her uncle and criticized the Prime Minister's actions.

The government remains focused on recovery efforts in the region, emphasizing collaboration with local authorities to restore normalcy.
