This Wednesday, October 30, a DANA (Isolated High Level Depression) has devastated the east and south of the peninsula. Unfortunately 95 people have lost their lives, we send our condolences and condolences to their families, hoping that the dozens of missing tonight are safe. It is estimated that more than 1000 people are still trapped...

The troops sent by the police, UME, firefighters and civil guard have rescued thousands of people who have been rescued from their homes, roofs and cars. As well as their pets. The animal shelters of Valencia, Jerez, etc. are asking for foster homes for these days.

Most affected areas.

In the province of Valencia, the small municipality of Utiel was completely isolated with access cut off by road due to the overflow of the Magro River.

In addition to this Valencian town, Torrente, Paiporta, La Ribera, Requena and Huerta Sur, are other areas most affected by the floods and some are still without water, electricity or coverage.

The Picanya bridge (Valencia) has collapsed due to the flood of the Poyo ravine, which crosses the municipalities of Paiporta and Picanya.

Letur, a town in Albacete, is another of the most devastated by the DANA. In Andalusia it has left more than a thousand accidents.

Trains suspended by Adif and Guigo:

Roads closed:

Numerous roads remain closed as can be seen in this complete list of the DGT posted on the DGT website. 

Unfortunately, the looting and robberies of flooded shops is beginning, as reported on social networks and at the scene.

The Government announces the declaration of a catastrophic area in the areas devastated by the DANA and declares three days of official mourning.

The DANA that has affected October 30 will leave a precedent of what has not been done in terms of forecasting and warning to citizens and will foreseeably modify the management of emergencies and warnings in Spain. On social media, it is reported that the Aemet had already announced the DANA this Sunday. The Júcar Hydrographic Confederation had also warned this Tuesday of the DANA.

Other major historical floods:

Most young Spaniards cannot understand that laws are made to protect their pets and other living beings while others are subjected to torture and exhibition to death.

Recently laws have been enacted to protect animals from all forms of torture such as Law 7/2023, of March 28, for the protection of the rights and welfare of animals. Silencing the world of bulls, which are obviously animals like any other and are tortured to death for the enjoyment of a few and to enrich others.

This is bullfighting, the Spanish “fiesta” that is likely to be eradicated in the near future because of the human savagery it represents and in the face of the other countries of the European Union. The other member states see it as a delay typical of Roman times, when people and animals were executed for the amusement of other people in the Roman Coliseum.

Recently a Popular Initiative Law is gathering the 500,000 signatures needed for a popular initiative bill that seeks the eradication of this evil called art in its page Not my culture, in person in a number of locations such as the Vegan fair to be held in IFEVI this coming Saturday 26 and Sunday October 27 in Vigo.

You can also click on this link to read the full text of the law and on this link to leave your signature.

The suppression of the National Bullfighting Award has already taken effect since this year in Spain.

Five dangerous prisoners are being sought who have managed to escape from a Portuguese prison, specifically in the north of Lisbon.

They are Shergili Farjiani, 42 years old, the Portuguese Fernando Ribeiro Ferreira, 63, the British Mark Cameron Roscaleer, 37, Rodolfo Lohrmann, 61, and Fabio Loureiro, a Portuguese 34 years old.

They managed to do so thanks to the ladder that was provided to them from outside to jump over the six-metre wall, while the security guards were monitoring the visits.

Peinador has to be closed for three weeks to repair damages to the runway due to leaks or cracks, a circumstance that became evident in the year 2023.

For this reason, from the 6th to the 30th of May, Air Europa, Ryanair, Vueling, Binter and Iberia flights will be diverted to the Santiago de Compostela, A Coruña and Oporto runways.

This closure of the airport has already been reflected in the sales of the airlines operating here.

Most of the airlines have rescheduled their flights from the airport of Santiago de Compostela, Lavacolla.Direct buses from Vigo to Santiago de Compostela airport have been provided and leave from the bus station in Vialia on a daily basis.

Castrelos will once again vibrate to the sound of the best baritones and tenors!

This Friday, August 9, the open-air stage of the Castrelos auditorium will premiere the opera Rigoletto by Giuseppe Verdi.

In an idyllic setting under the stars and the open sky, just like other cities do in summer, such as Seville at the Alcazar.

Admission is free as in all summer concerts at the auditorium, with most charging a symbolic entrance fee of 10 euros to those who want to be closer to the stands

Este viernes 9 de agosto el escenario al aire libre del auditorio de Castrelos estrenara la opera Rigoletto de Giuseppe Verdi.
