Valencia leader Carlos Mazón resigns over handling of deadly floods

Valencia's political landscape shifts dramatically as President Carlos Mazón resigns amidst intense criticism over his handling of last October's devastating flash floods. Mazón's decision comes after spending hours in a restaurant with a journalist while floodwaters ravaged towns, and as public pressure mounts from grieving families and citizens. With Mazón remaining in the regional parliament and facing a judge's investigation, the conservative People's Party faces challenges in selecting his replacement, all while Valencia navigates its recovery and political future.
