Extensive Flooding Hits Spain After Successive Storms

Spain has experienced extensive flooding following a series of storms that have impacted the Iberian Peninsula. Aerial footage has clearly documented the widespread scale of these floods.

The latest in this series, Storm Marta, struck Spain on Saturday, bringing additional heavy rain to areas already in recovery from the effects of Storm Leonardo.

In the province of Córdoba, drone footage has revealed a striking visual of flooded olive trees. This evidence underscores the serious warnings from Spanish farmers, who have cautioned that potential crop damage could be estimated at millions of euros due to the torrential rains and high winds.

The human impact of the flooding is also severe, with over 11,000 people in the southern region of Andalucia already having been displaced.
