Mud hurled at Spain royals, angry crowds raise slogans as they visit flood-hit Valencia | N18G

On November 3, residents of a Valencia suburb expressed outrage during a visit by King Felipe, protesting the government's response to recent deadly floods that resulted in a rising death toll of 217, mostly in the Valencia region. Many blamed authorities for delayed alerts about the impending storm and slow emergency responses. Demonstrators chanted "Murderers!" and participated in a "cacerolazo," banging pots and pans to voice their anger. While the central government claimed that alerting the public was the regional authorities' responsibility, local officials defended their actions, stating they acted with the information available. The floods are now considered Europe’s worst flood-related disaster in decades, prompting the deployment of thousands of troops and police for relief efforts. With many residents still unaccounted for and thousands lacking electricity, frustration remains high as cleanup operations continue amidst further rain, complicating recovery efforts.
