Andorra’s Government Approves Donation of Over 33,000 Surgical Masks and Other Protective Medical Supplies to Victims of DANA Storm in Valencia
Andorra la Vella, November 13, 2024 – The Government of Andorra has approved a donation of over 33,000 surgical masks and other protective medical supplies to assist victims of the recent DANA (Isolated Depression at High Levels) storm that devastated parts of the Valencia region in Spain.
The donation, which includes masks, gloves, gowns, and other essential medical supplies, will be coordinated through the Andorran Red Cross and its network of partners on the ground in Valencia.
“Our thoughts are with the people of Valencia who have been affected by this devastating storm,” said Andorran Prime Minister Xavier Espot Zamora. “We are committed to providing assistance to those in need and helping them recover from this tragedy.”
The DANA storm, which occurred on November 12-13, brought torrential rainfall and flooding to the Valencia region, causing widespread damage and loss of life. According to official reports, at least 10 people have died in the storm, and thousands have been displaced.
The Government of Andorra’s donation is part of a broader effort to provide international assistance to victims of natural disasters. Andorra has a long history of providing humanitarian aid to countries around the world, including those affected by earthquakes, floods, and other emergencies.
The Andorran Red Cross will be responsible for distributing the donated medical supplies to those who need them most. The organization has a strong presence in Valencia and is working closely with local authorities to coordinate relief efforts.
“We are grateful for the generous donation from the Government of Andorra,” said Andorran Red Cross President Josep Duró. “These supplies will make a real difference in the lives of people who have lost everything.”
The donation is expected to arrive in Valencia in the coming days. The Andorran Red Cross will provide updates on the distribution of the supplies as they become available.
