At least 158 people have died in Spain’s worst flooding disaster in generations as rescuers battle odds to find survivors.
"Right now the most important thing is to save as many lives as possible," Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez told victims in a visit to affected communities.
But in some of the towns worst-hit in Tuesday night’s floods, people were left to the task of recovering bodies from the mud and wreckage.
"We all know someone who has died," said pharmacist Miguel Guerrilla, standing outside his chemist shop which has been covered in thick mud.
Questions have been asked over whether disaster management services issued warnings too late.
