Flood disaster in Spain: Over 200 dead and 200 missing in Valencia. An emergency has been declared in the tourist paradise of Palma as the storm moves towards Mallorca. The meteorology department has issued a warning for 120 mm of rainfall within the next 3-4 hours. While rescue operations continue in Valencia, extraordinary measures have been taken in Mallorca.

In the flood disaster that struck the city of Valencia in Spain, around 2000 people are unaccounted for, while the death toll has exceeded 200. As the storm moves towards Mallorca Island, the tourist paradise city of Palma has gone on alert.

Rescue operations continue following the disaster in the Valencia region, where 155 people lost their lives. Teams searching in submerged vehicles and collapsed buildings are concerned about the rising number of missing persons.

Extraordinary measures were taken in Mallorca following a warning from the Spanish Meteorological Service. Parks, gardens, and cemeteries in Palma were closed, and the public was warned to stay indoors unless absolutely necessary.

Meteorological officials warned that 120 mm of rain could fall in Mallorca within 3-4 hours. This amount is equivalent to one-tenth of the total rainfall in the UK for the year 2023.

Luis Sanchez, who participated in the rescue operations in Valencia, said, "I saw bodies being swept away by the floodwaters. People were trapped in their vehicles, crying helplessly everywhere." While a thousand soldiers are on duty in the region, 70 people have been rescued by helicopters.

Many countries, including the UK, have sent messages of support to Spain.
