Panama expressed its profound solidarity with Spain over the train accident that occurred on Sunday, which left at least 39 dead and over 100 injured. The Panamanian government stated that it shares the pain of the victims' families and sends condolences and wishes for a speedy recovery to the injured. Furthermore, Panama reaffirmed the historical bonds of friendship, cooperation, and fraternity with Spain, joining the national mourning that the European country is experiencing. The accident involved a train from the Italian company Iryo, which was traveling from Málaga to Madrid with 317 people and derailed its last three carriages when it invaded the track of another Renfe convoy, which was heading to Huelva and also derailed. The President of the Spanish Government, Pedro Sánchez, declared three days of official mourning and ordered that the flag be flown at half-mast on all public buildings. The president of Iryo, Carlos Bertomeu, described the accident as "rare" and "strange" and expressed that the company is invaded by profound sadness.
