Ana Cuesta, journalist from laSexta, spoke about how the Valencians feel after the passage of a DANA which, in her province, is currently arrested more than 200 dead with dozens and dozens of missing people being searched relentlessly. Moreover, it caused endless damage.
Meanwhile, citizens are waiting for help. They are waiting for help that never arrives: “The Valencians of today they feel helpless. “That’s what they convey to you, both those who are affected and those who are going to help.”
“They tell you it’s them, that they can’t sit at home and watch what’s happening. But they don’t see any help. They don’t see the uniforms. We have the feeling that they are abandoned, helpless,” he continued.
And he concluded his message: “It was important to put it on the table, and also transmit it to government officials which were made available to us.
Because DANA has completely changed the landscape of the province of Valencia. With Turia dividing everything between north and south, the second zone has turned brown from the mud that covers the streets of its villages. In Chiva, for example, 500 liters per square meter were recorded in just eight hours. It’s the rains which fall in an entire year.
