Spain floods: Intense rains sweep away Catalonia cars, days after Valencia catastrophe

Heavy rains triggered severe flooding in the Spanish town of Cadaques on Friday, sweeping away dozens of cars parked in a normally dry riverbed that turned into a torrent rushing down from nearby mountains.

The floodwaters inundated streets and scattered debris across the town, causing widespread disruption. At least 219 people died in Spain after heavy rains last week caused waterways to overflow, creating flash floods that surged through suburbs south of the city of Valencia.
