Death Toll now at 211 and rising

 

 

An enormous search operation is underway in Valencia's biggest shopping centre after an underground car park was left submerged in the deadly floods – leaving what many fear is now a 'mass grave' with bodies being counted 'by the hundreds'.

Close to 10,000 troops and police have been drafted into the region to help in the search after the nation was hit with its worst natural disaster in decades, with the death toll rising over 200 and 2,000 people still missing. 

Among those called in is a team of specialist scuba divers, who have been deployed in the flooded car park of the Bonaire shopping centre, after hundreds of abandoned cars were discovered by rescuers.
