I am from Algemesi, one of the badly hit towns, but I live in London. Last time I spoke to my dad was on Tuesday night. It's Friday night right now and I haven't been able to talk to him as phone coverage has not been reestablished yet. I know he's doing fine as I could talk to some neighbors. The most outrageous bit is that it's been already 3 days and little to no military personnel has reached my hometown. We have more than 100,000 military people in Spain, and we know they are ready to help and waiting orders. Central Government has barely sent 2,000. The affected regions have a total population of 300,000. Nobody in the area understands the lack of response, we cannot explain it. Towns are still without electricity, water, and phone coverage, and it's been 3 full days. Central government blames regional government politicians and vice-versa as they are from different political parties.
Dimarts passat, a les 13 h, va comparéixer davant els mitjans de comunicació el president Mazón i va dir que no hi havia motiu per a alarmar-se ja que el focus més actiu de la dana es desplaçava cap a les serres de Conca.

I'm from Spain, I'll try to explain The autonomous goverment of the area can activate alert lvl 2, which they remain the control of the goverment of the area and ask the central goverment for resources, or ask the central goverment to activate alert lvl 3, so the central goverment will take control of the area, also in lvl 3 they can send the military under Defense Ministery The central goverment on their own, without the asking of the local autonomous goverment, can activate lvl 3 and take full control The local goverment from PP doesn't want to show incompetence, so they preferred to remain in control, and ask for help to the central goverment, which they haven't had until yesterday afternoon, first asking for 500 military, and today they have asked for another 500 military and for firefighters. The central goverment from PSOE doesn't want to take full control, so they don't have to take the fall nor they risk of being called dictators. So basically, the only military that was there for the first two day were the UME (Unit of Military Emergency) who works under the ask from Ministry of Interior, some Local Police and Civil guards, around 1,200 effectives, for an area of 550,000 people affected... Luckily today, over 72 after the flooding, there are over 5,000 effectives, but the Goverments should pay for what they have done.
It shows one thing: federalism does not work! Each province should have an emergency mechanism. If EU countries are able to use military airplanes to drop humanitarian aid in foreign countries, why can't they do it in their own countries?? These poor people had to walk 5 km to get some dirty water from a broken pipe. Indeed, your government will have a lot to answer for!
Government is the source of all misery. It is gratifying to see the people helping themselves and others. Incredibly, in Hawaii, the command to first responders was to not help the islanders escape the fires. A pattern?
They hit south of Brazil at the start of 2024. Same floids as Spain. No quick response from the government...a socialist one. Useless. The future must be Ancap! 👍🏻
As stated by some people, warning systems didn't fail. Politicians did. The same politicians that cancelled the financiation of the emergency response teams in Valenecia. Also, these politicians did nothing to try to avoid this. They just told everyone to just keep acting as normal, and issued calls for help and alerts, really late. Carlos Mazón is the president to thank for this. He also tweeted that the storm would be moving away from valencia, even when the forecast from the goverment didn't state the same. He later deleted that Tweet. I just hope this facts see the light and there are consecuences for this.
I live in Madrid, when we had the snowstorm a few years ago the amount of time it took for the city to get back to normal was an outrage, and that was trees and ice. I fear that these places will be suffering for many weeks.
@@foudilbenouci482anda, contento te quedaras, que decir en este video eso pega lo mismo que gritar en un acto en conmemoracion por las victimas de la guerra civil que "viva España"
Tenemos un ejercito mentalizado en que su mayo mayor deseo es proteger y servir a los españoles, no hay niguna cosa que un militar español pueda desear por encima de eso, pero el ejercito solo puede movilizarlo el ministerio de defensa por orden del gobierno, que esta sujeto al mandato del nefasto Pedro Sanchez, ni siquiera el rey que es Capitan General de todas las fuerzas armadas puede ponerse al frente del ejercito sin el mandato del gobierno de la nación, porque sería de facto un golpe de estado, cosa que nunca haría el rey Felipe VI, tenemos el mejor rey del mundo pero sujeto a una democracia parlamentaria corrompida, y el peor gobierno del mundo que se aprovecha de la democracia para hacernos sufrir una dictadura encubierta, y así estamos.
This is catestrophic. Where I live, North Carolina, we have whole towns and communities still struggling from the flooding of Hurricane Helene. No ONE expected a hurricane to hit the inland mountains- five hours from the nearest coastline- with flooding. Now people in Spain are being swept away in flooded suburbs.
The volunteers should be so proud of themselves. It is of biblical proportions, I send my heartfelt sympathy to Valencia’s people. Stay strong stay save.😢😢😢😢😢😢❤❤❤❤❤
La ultima vez que sucedio algo similar en unas horas tenian mas de 3000 soldados con todo lo necesario. Esta vez hasta que el Rey no ha mandado a su propia guardia real (es la unica que puede desplazar sin permiso del presidente ) el presidente no ha autorizado mandar 500 militares con maquinaria pesada y helicópteros. 3 dias después de lo sucedido. Estando personas aisladas sin agua ni luz a dia de hoy. Lo unico que mandaron al dia siguiente fueron 1200 personas de emergencias y policia, se quejaban de que necesitaban maquinaria y no les autorizaron llevar maquinaria. Gracias a particulares que llevaron maquinaria y 4x4 pudieron empezar a mover vehiculos. Un saludo. Todo por política! Una vergüenza.
Similar thing happened here in the States in North Carolina and in Hawaii. The good thing is that the PEOPLE got together and helped each other. And that's the most important thing. If/when the government comes in to "help" is one thing. But it's the everyday citizens supporting each other is what keeps the country going.🎉❤🎉❤🎉❤🎉
This socialist Gov is criminal. They have the Spain Atourney charged, the wife of the Presidente, the Minister of Public Infrustucture etc.. They are letting people die, so they can make a political case against the Oposition that rules the Region of Valencia Even the socialist minister of defence said that "the mimitsry are frustated to not go at the first minute" They are movilizing the zapadores and engineers today .. .@@TribeWantedGilligan
@@ricopyro9282 Yeah, the only ones who see what's really going on are the ones who refuse to be gaslit into a brainwashed lobotomy by mainstream media and the federal cartel currently ruining our country.
Same thing happened to the People in NC, Tennessee ect...waiting for help that didn't come. Neighbors helping each other and bringing in supplies 😢 They are using Donkey chains, Horses to get aid into the People..not donating to the Red Cross
Droughts and floods are increasingly frequent due to climate change, resulting in more extreme weather events. It’s crucial to understand that a significant source of greenhouse gas emissions is methane from ruminant animals, which has a greenhouse effect 28 times greater than carbon dioxide. Additionally, nitrous oxide from livestock farming has a greenhouse effect 298 times greater than carbon dioxide. By reducing meat consumption and increasing our intake of plant-based foods, we can all play a part in combating climate change and protecting our planet.”
We live in a society where everything is instant and in a part of the world that doesn't see that many natural disasters. It does take time to organise and deploy have patience
That's why planning exists. In Madrid when we had the snowstorm, there was so obviously no coordinated response. The police, fit young people, were stopping people from throwing snowballs, because that is all they know how to do, clearing the ices was left to the street sweepers, many of whom are middle aged and many of whom are women.
We are able to drop humanitarian food off planes in foreign countries but when disaster strikes on our shores, victims cannot eat or drink and had to salvage what they could!! Despicable!
A tragic event always exposes a government's weakness, in this case it may expose that Spain really does not have an effective military, or a military at all.
Mother nature doesn’t discriminate. In the midst of disaster like this, we must recognize each other, equate our existence, unite to mobilize movement. I hope Spanish folks and people around the word strengthen their longing to each other. We can’t live alone wherever we are. We don’t know what will happen in the coming days. Hope a for speedy recovery in Valencia. 💪🏽🌏🌿🌳
same story as in US...... the weather manipulation is deliberate.More and more people waking up to this evil.. Prayers for those whove lost loved ones and had their lives destroyed .
First of all, I would like to value and thank all the UME personnel, police, guardia civil, ejército, etc. who risk their lives to save people and clarify that the responsibility in this case lies with the autonomous community, Valencia. Therefore, I do not know why the central government is being attacked. Mazon will have to answer for this.
Why not worryivng about prevention? The mountain and hillslopes that were deforested decades ago have contributed to devastating floods. Don't blame climate change only.
Seems a common theme these days, not helping the people in disaster's. ISNT TAXES part of this, to help!. Look at the USA, three disasters that they didnt bother even helping the people with. Oh some sort of offer of $750 is supposed to help. Whats going on, where are the rescue teams?..
Unfortunately for Spain, France had the same problem in several regions of France at the same time. Otherwise the French army could have helped, it knows how to manage disasters better.
Shouldn't the central government activate a emergency and call in the military and such.. maybe they feel the floods is only affecting "a part of Spain" so its not a nation wide emergency..
It's more complicated than that, as the regional government needs to either request help from the national government or the national government can choose to impose their decisions, in which case the regional government will cause stir saying they've been overrun. Of course they are each from different political parties.
did anyone in the Gov feel they should offer something? I mean u want Support from Spain right? Thats like our second closest neighbour. Ignoring Ireland. Until it requries such aid. Just do it for the alliance of it. I mean spain ain't bad. Its connected with some rough history but who isn't except the innocnet i think send the aid. may be a bit late now if its too late next time send the aid. always have teams ready to go.
Couldn´t agree more. I am from Valencia and we don´t need that kind of inflammatory narrative on top this hellish situation that has been brought upon us atm. We already know exactly whose heads we´re going after.
And also making local people speak in English instead of having them speak in the local language(s). That just shows a luck of humanity. Putting more pressure on them, making them think in a foreign language is criminal.
None of us expected this. We had alerts of heavy rain but this was so fast. No one could get into the areas. This area is an industrial estate with major stores including IKEA who helped as did many other stores. Army, police, search dogs, bombers went from our area and many other areas. It’s why I don’t watch MSM.
Strong, very good people, shown by all the ones out working and travelling to help!! Bless all helping others-a Strong people in Spain!!!
So heartbreaking..tears flowing for Spain's flood victims..😢

The autonomous goverment of the area can activate alert lvl 2, which they remain the control of the goverment of the area and ask the central goverment for resources, or ask the central goverment to activate alert lvl 3, so the central goverment will take control of the area, also in lvl 3 they can send the military under Defense Ministery
The central goverment on their own, without the asking of the local autonomous goverment, can activate lvl 3 and take full control
The local goverment from PP doesn't want to show incompetence, so they preferred to remain in control, and ask for help to the central goverment, which they haven't had until yesterday afternoon, first asking for 500 military, and today they have asked for another 500 military and for firefighters.
The central goverment from PSOE doesn't want to take full control, so they don't have to take the fall nor they risk of being called dictators.
So basically, the only military that was there for the first two day were the UME (Unit of Military Emergency) who works under the ask from Ministry of Interior, some Local Police and Civil guards, around 1,200 effectives, for an area of 550,000 people affected...

What about the regional government? It's not like they have nothing to do with this.
Because they got hit by the floods too and cannot reach everyone because of mother nature taking out the roads? Okay cool story bro 👍

How very sad.
We are able to drop humanitarian food off planes in foreign countries but when disaster strikes on our shores, victims cannot eat or drink and had to salvage what they could!! Despicable!
Look at all the money and equipment given to the oligarchs in the Iukraine.
Dropping stores from planes can & has killed people.
The goverment only sent 1500 army to help, why not 3000
When he announced it I thought it was a joke, maybe that was a squad of some sort then other specialists will be sent but no.
Where are going to put an extra 3000 people and all there vehicles & equipment. In what is quite a small area.
10.000 effectives
Yes perhaps more timely emergency support would have helped save lives !
A tragic event always exposes a government's weakness, in this case it may expose that Spain really does not have an effective military, or a military at all.
We have 120,000 military. But they were stuck in their camps waiting for orders from the government. There have been many complaints from them!!!
