Spain is very sad because of terrible sudden floods.

Heavy rains in Spain caused big floods, turning streets into rivers. Many homes were ruined, travel was difficult, and sadly, many people died.

The floods happened in southern and eastern Spain, from Malaga to Valencia. Cars were swept away, and people were stuck in their homes.

Over 90 people died in Valencia, and more deaths were reported in other areas. One town, Utiel, lost six people, and more are still missing.

People described the flood as terrifying, with water rising very quickly. In Paiporta, more than 30 people died, including some in a nursing home.

The floods were some of the worst Spain has ever seen, and many people are still missing. The government is working hard to rescue people and help those affected.
