Deadly floods sweep through eastern Spain after torrential rain

Torrential rain caused severe flooding in eastern Spain, leaving at least four people dead and prompting more than 400 rescues in the Valencia region. Floodwaters swept away parked cars, submerged roads and left some residents stranded, with emergency crews airlifting people to safety. In Oliva, one of the worst-hit areas, two people died, including a 79-year-old woman found at home. Authorities ordered around 100 municipalities to remain indoors for several hours as heavy rain battered the Mediterranean coast. Most restrictions were lifted by early Monday afternoon as conditions improved.
