05.11.2024The day Sánchez's billions met Valencia's wounds
A week after the DANA disaster, Prime Minister Sánchez announced a €10.6 billion aid package for affected areas, including direct assistance of up to €60,000 per household. This fell short of the €31.4 billion requested by Valencia's President Mazón. The official count of missing persons reached 89, with 62 unidentified bodies. Political tensions escalated as the opposition accused Sánchez of exploiting the crisis for political gain. Local mayors demanded supramunicipal coordination, highlighting ongoing management issues. Engineers criticized the lack of investment in hydraulic infrastructure, calling the disaster "foretold". As night fell, attention shifted to the U.S. elections, with Trump and Harris making final appeals to voters. The day's events underscored the complex interplay between disaster response, political maneuvering, and international focus.
