Severe Flooding Disrupts Barcelona Rail Services

Heavy storms have led to significant flooding in eastern Spain, particularly impacting Valencia where at least 217 people have died. As the storm system moved north, Barcelona experienced severe rainfall on Monday, prompting authorities to suspend all commuter rail services and issue alerts for 'extreme and continued rainfall.' In Barcelona, 50 flights were canceled, and major roads have been closed due to flooding, while classes were canceled in Tarragona due to a red alert. In the aftermath of the Valencia floods, search and rescue operations continue for missing persons, with citizens and around 10,000 soldiers aiding in cleanup efforts. Public anger towards the royal family has surfaced as they visited affected areas, with some residents expressing their frustration vocally. Authorities have yet to provide a reliable estimate of the number of missing individuals.
