Storm Harry hits Badalona and Barcelona hard. The Badalona seafront has been left devastated. There are no injuries, but concern is growing. The mayor demands urgent action. Discover the details of the disaster.

Storm Harry has caused severe damage in Badalona and Barcelona, leaving the Badalona seafront practically destroyed. The northern area, in the Canyadó neighbourhood, which connects with Montgat, has been the most affected, according to images shared by Tot Badalona with Metrópoli.

The mayor of Badalona, Xavier García Albiol, went to the area to assess the extent of the damage. He explained that the water has swept away the promenade, leaving it completely unusable. Despite the scale of the disaster, there have been no injuries or fatalities.

The city council has set up a special operation to mark and cordon off the damaged area, prohibiting access to residents to ensure their safety. There is also concern about the railway infrastructure, as the sea has damaged the base of Adif's safety zone.

The mayor stressed the urgency of immediate intervention and reminded that responsibility for the affected area lies with the State. Throughout the day, municipal officials will inspect the damage to determine the next steps.
