Overview

• The wall, several meters high, collapsed on September 19 onto a prefabricated module in a non-public zone, causing damage but no injuries.
• Aena stopped construction in the affected area, opened an investigation, and initiated a sanction procedure against the responsible firm.
• The operator said the failure occurred during work carried out by a subcontractor.
• The event is at least the third such incident this year, after a February ceiling collapse near security and late-June debris that shattered glass in the arrivals area.
• The airport remains in a years-long modernization set to finish next year, drawing political criticism including Balearic president Marga Prohens labeling the construction management “catastrophal” and urging better worker safety.
