Two more victims of the Adamuz accident have been found, bringing the total to 45.

Barcelona45 bodies. This is the total number of victims that the Civil Guard and all emergency services have found in the Adamuz (Córdoba) accident, a figure that coincides with the number of disappearances reported by families since Sunday night. The last two bodies were found this Thursday at midday and still need to be identified, as reported by the Minister of the Interior, Fernando Grande-Marlaska, and the head of the Civil Guard's forensics service, Fernando Domínguez, at a press conference in Madrid. According to Fernando Domínguez, these last two bodies were found in the second carriage of the Alvia train, which, along with the first, was in the worst condition. This Thursday, the Civil Guard had expanded the search perimeter to find two people who were traveling on the wrecked trains and who were still missing, but Domínguez explained that they were found in the second carriage of the Alvia after a more thorough inspection.

Both appeared to report on the work carried out by the Civil Guard in recent hours and shared that the force has already submitted its initial report to the court in Montoro (Córdoba), which will oversee the judicial investigation into the causes of the Adamuz accident. As part of these initial proceedings, they explained that the driver of the Iryo train, as well as the crew and passengers, have been questioned, without ruling out expanding the range of witnesses. However, when asked what conclusions they draw from the conversation the driver of the derailed train had with Adif—in which it appeared he was unaware of the collision with the Alvia train—both Marlaska and the head of the Civil Guard's forensics unit declined to comment. In fact, they stated that the police have not yet opened the trains' black boxes and that the content of the statements made to the judicial police cannot be officially released.

The minister praised the work of the security forces for the "immediacy" with which they responded to the scene. Specifically, they explained that although the Iryo train derailed at 7:45 p.m., they received a call from 112 (the emergency services number) at 7:47 p.m. and were already at the accident site by 8:00 p.m. They did not clarify at what point the Civil Guard realized there was another train, the Alvia, about 800 meters further on, and in worse condition, but they assured that the officers present immediately grasped the magnitude of the situation. Civil Guard sources clarified that the Civil Guard arrived at the Alvia at 8:15 p.m.
