Valencia Flood Tragedy Sparks Accountability Debate

Published: 2025-03-28

Five months after the devastating flood in Valencia that claimed 227 lives, tensions remain high as victims' families demand accountability.

Joaquín Amills, president of SOS Desaparecidos, has criticized the Generalitat's response, particularly President Carlos Mazón, for alleged failures in emergency management.

Amills has formally joined the legal case investigating the disaster, calling for Mazón to testify and assume responsibility.

He argues that errors in preparation, response, and follow-up contributed to the tragedy.

Despite a recent meeting with Mazón, Amills expressed dissatisfaction, urging for deeper investigations into all levels of government.

The association continues to push for answers, aiming to prevent future disasters.
