On the ground: ‘Searching rescue underway’ after flooding claims at least 158 lives • FRANCE 24

Crews searched for bodies in stranded cars and sodden buildings Thursday as residents salvaged what they could from their ruined homes following monstrous flash floods in Spain that claimed at least 158 lives, with 155 deaths confirmed in the eastern Valencia region alone. Cars were piled on one another like fallen dominoes, uprooted trees, downed power lines and household items all mired in mud that covered streets in dozens of communities in Valencia, a region south of Barcelona on the Mediterranean coast. FRANCE 24’s Antonia Kerrigan reports from Sedavi, Spain.
