Spain Reels from Back-to-Back Storms: Over 11,000 Evacuated Amid Devastating Flooding

Catastrophic back-to-back storms have left thousands of Spaniards fleeing their homes as Storm Marta's relentless flooding puts the nation on high alert. Authorities are scrambling to contain the disaster, just weeks after the devastating impact of Storm Leonardo claimed two lives and sparked a national evacuation frenzy.

The recent back-to-back storms have brought Spain to the forefront of international attention, with the EU seeking emergency funding to support the country's recovery efforts. This latest crisis has also reignited calls for greater investment in disaster preparedness and infrastructure, a pressing concern that has been on the radar of policymakers for years.
