PILAR DE LA HORADADA/ORIHUELA, Spain - Three people have been killed in two days of torrential rains in southeastern Spain, where emergency services have rescued people stuck in flooded tunnels and an airport, local train networks and dozens of roads were closed on Friday.
Road tunnels in some areas were flooded almost up to the tunnel lighting, and some vehicles were almost fully submerged. Murcia’s airport was closed, while the one in Almeria reopened after being shut for several hours on Friday, Spanish airport operator Aena said. Rivers were still at risk of overflowing, including the Segura, which has already flooded the town of Orihuela in Alicante and could flood in the city of Murcia, the local water management authority said.
