At least 62 people have died after torrential rains triggered devastating floods in Spain's Valencia region, with rescue teams racing against time to reach isolated communities. The disaster—described as one of Spain’s worst in decades—has left streets submerged, transport paralyzed, and families searching for missing loved ones.
😢 Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez teared up during a live address, vowing: 'Together, we’ll rebuild your streets, your squares, your bridges.' Schools and train services to Madrid and Barcelona remain suspended as emergency crews battle 'absolutely impossible' access to flooded zones.
🚨 Valencia’s regional leader Carlos Mazón warned: 'If help hasn’t arrived, it’s because roads are destroyed, not from lack of trying.' Farmers in this key agricultural hub now face ruin as floodwaters swallow crops and infrastructure.
