The award, presented at the Blas Infante Cultural Center, highlights the coordinated response to a meteorological situation described as extraordinary. During the ceremony, the work of the deployed units was praised for addressing multiple simultaneous risks across the province of Málaga.
The regional government delegate emphasized that the scale of the events, which included landslides and the management of critical infrastructure such as the Montejaque dam, required close collaboration between administrations. In Casares Costa, an Advanced Command Post was established to coordinate assistance following the isolation of the Secadero area.
In addition to the regional administration, the local council extended recognition to various entities, including the Guardia Civil, the National Police, the Provincial Fire Consortium, 112 Andalucía, 061 emergency services, Red Cross, and various volunteer groups and municipal workers who participated in the operation.
