Andalusia is on alert due to the intensification of the effects of the storms in recent weeks, with the arrival of the new front, Marta. It is estimated that the economic losses for the region could be in the millions. The president of the Junta, Juanma Moreno, has highlighted the severity of the economic impact on the region. He announced that he will request assistance from the State Contingency Fund and the EU Solidarity Fund, as losses in the productive system and infrastructure of the community are anticipated. He will request the reprogramming of European funds for the assistance of those affected by the rains, which have left 11,000 people evacuated in the region, a number that could increase. Damage to the regional road network is estimated to amount to 500 million euros, and 75% of the agricultural area is affected. The COAG has warned that the damage to agricultural production could exceed 3,000 million euros. Moreno has emphasised that budgetary resources will be mobilised and that the assessment of the damage will have to wait until next week.
