#Spain - residents angry over slow relief effort following deadly floods • FRANCE 24 English

9 November 2024

Protests have just begun in several Spanish cities, as thousands of people voice their anger over a lack of warning before the floods in Valencia, which killed at least 219 people.

Survivors say they also felt completely abandoned in the aftermath. There are calls for the regional President to resign, and also questions for the prime minister over why a national text alert warning system was not triggered in advance.

Details with FRANCE 24 correspondent in Madrid, Spain, Sarah Morris.
