Desperate rescue efforts were underway across southern and eastern Spain on Thursday after torrential rain brought devastating floods that killed at least 95 people — a figure expected to rise. Stunning images emerged from Valencia, Spain’s third most populous city, showing dozens of cars wedged atop one another after being carried by a wave of mud and debris into the walls of the narrow city streets. “Unfortunately, there are dead people inside some vehicles,” said Transport Minister Óscar Puente. A year's worth of rain fell in just eight hours in areas around the city, meteorologists said, fueling the worst natural disaster in the country's modern history.
