Floods in Spain kill at least six people while PM Sanchez says water levels need to lower before the government can make an estimate of the total cost of the damage
New cars are seen piled after a flood caused by torrential rains in Orihuela, Spain, September 14, 2019.
Flash floods swept away cars and swamped homes and fields in the regions of Valencia, Murcia and eastern Andalusia. After observing the damage from a helicopter flying over the city of Orihuela in the region of Valencia, Sanchez visited a command centre for emergency operations. The prime minister said water levels need to lower before the government can make an estimate of the total cost of the damage.
The storm moved further west on Saturday, causing a flash flood in the village of Alhaurin el Grande in the province of Malaga, washing away about a dozen cars, local officials said.
