O prefeito de Múrcia, José Ballesta, faleceu neste domingo aos 67 anos após enfrentar um câncer. A vice-prefeita Rebeca Pérez assumiu o cargo interinamente até que um novo prefeito seja designado.

A Câmara Municipal de Múrcia decretou três dias de luto oficial e o velório estará aberto na segunda-feira no salão plenário. Os serviços municipais continuarão funcionando normalmente e o funeral será realizado na terça-feira na Catedral.

Ballesta, professor de medicina e ex-reitor da Universidade de Múrcia, ocupou vários cargos regionais antes de se tornar prefeito em 2015. Ele perdeu o cargo em 2021 devido a uma moção de censura e o recuperou em 2023 com maioria absoluta.

O presidente regional Fernando López Miras suspendeu a agenda de segunda-feira e elogiou sua dedicação a Múrcia. Líderes do PP, PSOE e Vox expressaram condolências e destacaram seu serviço público.
