PAIPORTA, Spain (AP) — Last week's catastrophic flooding in Spain has left a trail of devastation, with 217 confirmed dead and 89 people still missing. The small town of Paiporta, located on Valencia's southern outskirts, has been particularly hard hit, with over 60 fatalities reported.
The flash floods caught many residents off guard, including one family who tragically lost a 3-year-old girl and her mother. The father survived by clinging to a fence as the tsunami-like wave swept away their car. The car now hangs precariously off the edge of a road, a grim reminder of the swiftness and ferocity of the floodwaters.
