The City Council of Águilas also extended their condolences in a statement reading:
“We cannot find words with which to comfort, in these hard times, his family to whom we convey our very deepest condolences on behalf of all aguileños”.
Lamentamos profundamente el fallecimiento del pequeño de 5 años, víctima de esta terrible pandemia.
