Spain’s Guardia Civil has rescued a family and their dogs from a flooded home in Oliva, as heavy flooding continues to affect parts of the Valencia region.
Footage released by the Spanish police force shows an officer carrying a woman on his back through the floodwater, followed by a man being led to safety. The family is then taken out of the flooded town in a Guardia Civil vehicle.
Aerial images filmed from a rescue helicopter reveal large areas submerged near the coast, with emergency crews continuing operations to reach residents trapped by the rising water.
