YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Spanish prime minister, Pedro Sanchez, announces the largest army deployment in peacetime, with 10,000 more police and soldiers being sent to help people recover from the deadly flooding.

The number of people killed in the Valencia region has risen to 211 but locals have criticised the authorities for being poorly prepared, saying they feel "abandoned by the government".

Hundreds of volunteers have now taken it upon themselves to help, as police fear more bodies are hidden in the wreckage of the floods.

Sky's Europe correspondent Adam Parsons talks to some of those affected in the town of Paiporta.
