"I have confirmation that, so far, confirmed by the Legal Medical Service, there are 40 people dead during the fires and an additional 6 in hospital facilities due to burns. I want to be very careful with these figures because, given the conditions of the tragedy, the number of victims will surely increase over the next few hours, but the figures that we, as authorities of the republic, will provide are those that are confirmed by the corresponding authorities. In this, I am clear, we know they are going to increase."
