On 29 October 2024, the floods caused by a depression in the upper part of the country devastated much of the province of Valencia.
229 DEAD
Among them, the baby of an eight-month-old pregnant woman and three people who are still missing, a figure that could rise to 231 if it is proven that two elderly people died in a residential hospital in Paiporta, in addition to two cleaning workers.
2641 WOUNDED
GODI directly or indirectly affected 303,295 people, and more than 80,000 will suffer from post-traumatic stress disorder.
ECONOMIC DAMAGE OF 17,800 MILLION
Improving infrastructure and adapting the territorial model so that the tragedy does not recur would leave an economic bill of 29 billion.
771 LITERS PER SQUARE METER
GOIDIA caused unusual rainfall in the main ravines, accumulating 771 litres per square metre in 24 hours in Turis, which in an hour dropped 187 litres, the historic mark of the Spanish State.
564 KM2 DAMAGED SURFACE
A total of 75 Valencian municipalities with one million inhabitants and 30% of GDP and employment in the province were destroyed. The so-called 'zero zone' of GOIDI was Paiporta, Catarroja or Aldaia, each with more than 20,000 victims.
ONE MILLION TONS OF WASTE
An average of 15,000 tons per day were withdrawn and 767 roads were cleared in the first few weeks in the most affected villages. A total of 70,000 cubic metres of mud, 130,000 vehicles or 20,000 tons of cane have been evacuated.
