Son Sant Joan: Madrid halts explosives depot — a reprieve with unresolved questions

Answer

What should Mallorcans ask about any military storage project near Palma airport?

The key questions are who controls the site, how transport is secured, what quantities are stored and whether hospitals and municipalities have emergency plans. People in Mallorca should also ask what alternatives were seriously considered, including existing depots or a mainland location. Without that information, it is difficult to judge whether the chosen solution is the safest one.
