Algemesí, Spain – A video in an X post from VOST Comunitat Valenciana shows severe flooding in Algemesí. The footage captures a car completely submerged in floodwaters while a Red Cross vehicle drives through the inundated streets.

The video underscores the magnitude of the flooding and the emergency response underway. VOST Comunitat Valenciana stresses the importance of not attempting to cross flooded areas and of following instructions from emergency services.

The floods are part of the deadly flash flooding that struck in late October 2024, claiming more than 155 lives across eastern and southern Spain, including Algemesí. The destructive weather is linked to wider climate change impacts, with similar flooding also reported in Pakistan in 2025.
