This was Óscar Puente's resignation via WhatsApp

Óscar Puente unexpectedly resigned as Minister of Transport via WhatsApp just before his final speech in Congress. He sent a detailed message to the Prime Minister explaining his political and personal reasons for stepping down. Despite earlier denials about resigning, he had decided to leave the position on the day of the Urda accident. The Prime Minister, Pedro Sánchez, reportedly urged him to reconsider his decision after receiving the message. Puente's resignation took many by surprise, especially as it was communicated through a text rather than in person.
