Devastating Floods Hit Valencia, Spain
News summary

Spain's Valencia region has been devastated by its deadliest floods in decades, resulting in at least 95 deaths and massive infrastructural damage. The floods, caused by a cut-off low-pressure storm system linked to a wavy jet stream influenced by climate change, brought a year's worth of rain in a single day. Extensive agricultural damage has been reported, with orange, persimmon, and mandarin crops severely affected, threatening the livelihoods of local farmers. The town of Algemesi and surrounding areas experienced severe flooding, leaving many homes without power and vehicles damaged. Drone footage and on-the-ground reports reveal entire villages swamped and streets clogged with mud and debris. The Spanish government has deployed over a thousand soldiers and emergency responders, declared a national mourning period, and Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez has visited the hardest-hit areas to assess the damage.
