The DANA victim search device found two lifeless bodies this Friday in the Lac du Valencia Albuferaten days after the storm and a catastrophic flood affected several municipalities in the province.

For several days, rescue efforts have been focused on searching the Magro River, the Rambla de Poyo, the mouth of the Túria River and the aforementioned natural park, with the aim of locating possible victims of the tragedy.

Precisely, the Valencia City Council has ordered the suspension of all navigation in the Albufera and its canals, with the exception of that intended for rescue, inspection or cleaning work. In fact, some fishing boats who usually travel the lake collaborate with the Civil Guard in these tasks.

Furthermore, the Integrated Operational Coordination Center (CECOPI) integrated this Thursday into the operation a tool which makes it possible to carry out bathymetry in water for an in-depth search for victims in the area, which was added to the georadar already deployed.
