Severe flash flooding in southern and eastern Spain has resulted in at least 63 fatalities, including a baby and an elderly woman, as torrential rains inundated cities like Valencia and Malaga with an amount equivalent to a year's rainfall in just eight hours. Emergency services, supported by over 1,000 soldiers, have been engaged in rescue operations, utilizing helicopters and rubber boats to reach those trapped in their homes and vehicles. Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez expressed solidarity with victims' families and emphasized the government's commitment to recovery efforts. The extreme weather, attributed to a phenomenon known as DANA, caused record-breaking rainfall, with reports of up to 491mm in some areas. As rescue operations continue, authorities have warned of further heavy rains and potential risks of additional flooding in the coming days. The situation remains dire, with many still unaccounted for and extensive damage reported across the affected regions.
