•Trapped in cars and garages: Why Valencia floods proved so deadly
81% Informative
Almost all of the deaths confirmed so far have been in the Valencia region on the Mediterranean coast.
The town of Paiporta , population 25,000 , reported at least 62 deaths.
Mayor Maribel Albalat said that the town was ill-prepared in terms of planning, with many ground-floor flats.
Six residents of an elderly care home died when the flood water washed into the building when they were still on the ground floor.
The warming climate is also likely to have contributed to the floods.
