Summary

Intense flooding in the eastern part of Spain has caused travel interruptions for both trains and vehicles throughout Alicante and Valencia. Authorities shut down a portion of the AP-7 motorway following flash floods that left cars stranded in a tunnel, necessitating the rescue of 13 individuals. The stretch of road spanning from kilometre 770 to 774 is inaccessible, and traffic is being diverted to the N-332. The Guardia Civil of Spain stated that 2,141 people were evacuated and 496 were rescued throughout the Valencian Community due to the weather crisis. While the regional stay-at-home directives issued on Monday are no longer in effect, officials caution that infrastructure and roadways continue to be impacted or hard to reach.
