The Minister of Security, Patricia Bullrich, explained that they blocked a road to allow the evacuation of a neighborhood affected by floods in Bahía Blanca, which is completely submerged. In radio statements, Bullrich described the situation as extremely serious and devastating, with the city and entire neighborhoods affected.
During a tour of the areas affected by the floods resulting from the storm, Minister of Security Patricia Bullrich and Minister of Defense, Luis Petri, were confronted by residents of Bahía Blanca. In a tense moment, the national officials encountered local inhabitants who demanded assistance, going so far as to lament, 'we lost everything.'
In a video capturing the uncomfortable incident, a group of residents can be seen shouting and insulting Bullrich and Petri, who eventually left in a truck. In this context, the Minister of Security is leading an operation in Bahía Blanca with the participation of the Armed Forces, the Federal Police, the Coast Guard, and the Gendarmerie.
Bullrich emphasized that the water is receding thanks to the good weather of the day and the concrete operations carried out in places where the water remains stagnant. Despite residents' complaints about the lack of assistance, the government of Javier Milei deployed federal security forces to assist in rescue and assistance efforts for those affected by the floods in Bahía Blanca.
