Overview
- Cayetano García told Carlos Mazón around 19:20–19:25 that an emergency aid decree was ready and warned there would be large numbers of affected people.
- Carlos Mazón replied at 20:13 with “Bien preparado. Luego vemos,” confirming nearly an hour passed before he responded.
- The Generalitat’s Es Alert mass notification went out before Mazón’s reply, and he answered “Sí” when informed the alert had reached phones.
- The messages, compiled in a notarized act and submitted to Judge Nuria Ruiz Tobarra’s investigation in Catarroja, are now part of the judicial case file.
- Operational logs cited in the exchanges note the 112 center handled about 20,000 calls that day, with emergency chief Emilio Argüeso reporting his arrival at 12:17 and García offering to deploy in person, an offer Mazón declined.
