Marseille, France – Video filmed by X user HLionel captures severe flooding, likely on September 21, 2025.

The footage shows an urban neighborhood with multi-story residential buildings surrounded by deep, turbulent water. Cars, a van, and street infrastructure including trash bins and traffic lights are partially submerged.

The video then shifts to another part of the flooded area, showing a road filled with rushing water and a person attempting to walk through it. The images underline the immediate impact on residents.

The flooding forced the postponement of a Ligue 1 match after an “orange alert” was issued for storm and rain-flooding. Authorities warned that more intense weather was expected later in the evening.

HLionel remarked that the decision was wise for the safety of supporters, noting that this was only the beginning, with the worst predicted around 9 p.m.
