‘Still angry’: more than 50,000 protest in Valencia on first anniversary of floods

Demonstrators call on regional leader to resign over handling of one of Europe's deadliest natural disasters in decades

More than 50,000 people took to the streets of Spain's eastern city of Valencia on Saturday to mark the first anniversary of last year's deadly floods and denounce the authorities' handling of the disaster.

Demonstrators, many carrying photos of the victims, called on the regional leader, Carlos Mazon, to resign over what they say was the slow response to one of Europe's deadliest natural disasters in decades.
