Spain's Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez has mobilised the largest peacetime military operation in the country’s history, with 10,000 troops and police sent to the disaster zone.
Despite European offers of assistance, including from France and Portugal, Spain has opted for a national response. Sánchez's government has also applied for European Commission aid to support reconstruction in affected regions, which include not only Valencia but parts of Castilla-La Mancha.
This move came amid mounting criticism of the regional response.

Despite the scale of the tragedy, Valencia's conservative leader, Carlos Mazón, has held the emergency at level two, stopping the central government from taking full control—a decision that has sparked calls for his resignation.
Rescue efforts underway
The response effort involves not only local and military personnel but also hundreds of civilian volunteers who are delivering essential supplies to isolated communities. Travel restrictions remain in place, with some local roads damaged beyond access.

As soldiers and emergency workers comb through flooded garages and tunnels, hundreds of volunteers are helping deliver supplies to isolated areas. The Spanish government has applied for European aid, but so far has declined direct assistance from other nations, including offers from France and Portugal.
