Three months after a devastating storm claimed 224 lives in Valencia, Spain, legal investigations are intensifying.

The Court of First Instance in Catarroja, one of the hardest-hit areas, is centralizing all related cases.

A team of five specialized prosecutors has been formed to examine allegations of negligence, including delayed emergency alerts and inadequate flood management.

Victims' groups have filed lawsuits against regional and national officials, accusing them of manslaughter and other offenses.

The court is seeking detailed information from government agencies about their actions during the disaster.

This marks a significant step in addressing accountability for Valencia's worst natural catastrophe.
