Flash floods in eastern Spain have resulted in at least 62 fatalities, with the hardest-hit areas being Valencia and Cuenca. Torrential rains caused roads to flood, swept away vehicles, and even derailed a train, leading to widespread devastation. Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez has declared the situation a 'devastating event' and warned that further storms may complicate recovery efforts. Emergency services, supported by over 1,000 soldiers, have been working tirelessly to rescue trapped individuals and assess damage. Many victims include vulnerable populations, such as children and elderly residents, highlighting the human toll of this disaster. The central government has activated a crisis committee to coordinate the ongoing response efforts.
