Valencia officials clash over DANA storm management and employee protocols

Comunidad Valenciana DANA storm Vicent Mompó Diana Morant Valencia Diputación

A political dispute has emerged in the Valencian Community regarding the management of the DANA storm. A report from the Diputación de Valencia, submitted to a judge, confirms that the provincial corporation's head of Human Resources ordered all public employees to go home during the lunch hour on the day of the storm.

The HR head notified superiors, including the President of the Diputación, Vicent Mompó, and the Mayor of Utiel, Ricardo Gabaldón, via email. This action occurred in the absence of specific instructions from political leadership.

The report has triggered intense criticism between political figures. Diana Morant, the Minister of Science and PSPV secretary general, accused Mompó of knowing about preventive measures but only notifying his inner circle. In response, Mompó issued a harsh rebuttal, criticizing Morant's delayed arrival at the scene and her perceived focus on media presence rather than the affected population.
