Some places still don't have electricity, running water, or stable telephone connections after the historic flash floods.
People clear away mud from inside a flood-damaged cemetery on the outskirts of Valencia, Spain, on Friday, Nov. 1, 2024, after flooding in the region.
The damage from the storm Tuesday and Wednesday recalled the aftermath of a tsunami, with survivors left to pick up the pieces as they mourn loved ones lost in Spain’s deadliest natural disaster in living memory. So far 158 bodies have been recovered — 155 in Valencia, two in the Castilla La Mancha region and one more in Andalusia — after Spain’s deadliest natural disaster in living memory. Members of the security forces and soldiers are busy searching for an unknown number of missing people, many feared to still be trapped in wrecked vehicles or flooded garages.
In addition to the contributions of volunteers, associations such as the Red Cross and town councils are distributing food. Juan Ramón Adsuara, the mayor of Alfafar, said the aid isn't nearly enough for residents trapped in an “extreme situation.”
