Mazón rejects the causal link between the delay in sending the Es-Alert and the victims
He argues that he was not responsible for adopting prevention measures and did not participate in drafting the alert.
Former President of the Generalitat Carlos Mazón denies a causal link between the delay in sending an Es-Alert message on 29 October 2024 warning of the flood risk and the number of fatalities caused by the storm. The alert was sent that afternoon. The storm caused deaths due to rising river and stream water.
