Residents in the Valencia region of Spain expressed their frustration and anger towards authorities, including King Felipe and Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez, during a visit to the area following devastating floods that claimed the lives of over 200 people. The king and queen faced chants of “murderer” and were booed by the crowd, with some individuals throwing eggs and hurling insults at them.
The slow and uncoordinated response to the crisis has infuriated many in Valencia, with reports of delayed text alerts and warnings of flooding. The anger appeared to be largely directed at regional governor Carlos Mazon and Prime Minister Sanchez, who left the scene early despite the chaos.
