Floods in Spain resulted in the death of at least 13 people

According to El Pais, as a result of the floods that the natural disaster caused in the southern and eastern parts of Spain, 13 people died, including four children.

Local authorities in Valencia reported numerous casualties but did not specify the exact number of deaths. Many people who spent the night at the top of bridges, at gas stations, on store roofs, and in cars that were trapped on the road were evacuated.

Due to heavy rains and strong winds, 12 planes that were supposed to land at Valencia Airport were redirected to other cities, and 10 flights were canceled.

The national railway operator ADIF stopped the movement of high-speed trains between Madrid and Valencia due to track damage. In the Andalusia region, a train with 276 passengers derailed, but no one was injured.

Let us remind you that Bosnia and Herzegovina were also affected by floods. The most affected was the municipality of Jablanica, where 16 people died. In the city of Fojnica, another three bodies were found. Heavy rains that began on Friday night caused the flooding of several cities in the central and southern parts of the country, destroying homes and agricultural buildings.

By the way, global warming leads to the occurrence of heavy rains, hurricanes, and climate change in general.
