Deep under a shopping center in the suburbs of Valencia, the water is as deep as ever,this car park still barely accessible to rescue workers. In some places, only a canoe is good enough.
It’s in places like these that they fear many more victims are still to be found. Being caught in your car when the floods hit was often fatal. Finally now, but much too late, the full resources of the Spanish state are being deployed in the city. The anger here is that it took five days for the army and its heavy equipment to be on their streets in these sort of numbers; 7,800 are now at work here.
