The political responsible for the firefighters in the 'dana' justifies Mazón's absence in a Cecopi meeting where no deaths were discussed

A protest in Valencia demands accountability for Carlos Mazón regarding the recent tragic events caused by 'dana', as new details emerge about a crucial emergency meeting he missed.

In Valencia, a protest has gathered approximately one thousand citizens demanding accountability from Carlos Mazón concerning the recent tragic events known as 'dana'. This protest highlights public frustration regarding the perceived lack of response and transparency from political leaders during emergency situations. The gathering comes at a time when critical reports are surfacing about the decisions made during the emergency meeting held at the Centro de Coordinación de Emergencias in La Eliana, where significant events related to the disaster were allegedly ignored.

During ongoing judicial proceedings related to the 'dana' disaster, a key witness, Avelino Mascarell, testified about the timeline and nature of communications between officials during that tragic day. It was revealed that Salomé Pradas, an ex-councilor now implicated in the investigation, notified the chief of Carlos Mazón's cabinet about the first fatality via WhatsApp shortly before a crucial emergency meeting. However, reports indicate that the meeting did not address these fatalities, raising questions about the administration's handling of the crisis and communication protocols in such dire circumstances.

The absence of Carlos Mazón during the Cecopi meeting, where urgent matters of public safety were discussed, is again under scrutiny. According to Mascarell, Mazón’s missed presence could imply a significant oversight in coordinating emergency responses. This incident has intensified calls for accountability from the public and could have broader implications for political leadership in crisis management, as it sheds light on the need for better preparedness and responsiveness in the face of emergencies.
