a few hours marooned vehicles. littering moved to ways and piled up in the streets, showed the strength of what was spain's was not true dissolved in a century efforts to clean up mountain debris from the storm underway. residents and questioning why they would not sufficiently wound up the incoming flood tool to a i don't really. so can you have anything i haven't seen the police know the man nor anyone else? no one has come here to show that face. this is unexpected because the truth be told, this is all unprecedented the robber. they raced the alarm when the water was already here. when they told me the flood was coming, it was already too late. down the hill, they were telling me on the phone that the water was coming and i said to myself,

but it isn't raining. and when i looked out, there was already a meter of water here and i got overwhelmed. i couldn't do anything. i said, i'm going downstairs to move the car and i went downstairs and the water was already like this at the door. spain's prime minister petro sanchez, visited valencia where he will and residents that the situation is still on such and that uh, i would like to tell the people who live in the province of valencia and also in custody young. that the storm is continuing. so please stay at home, do not go out. if you can stay at home and listen to all the warnings from the emergency service, as i say, they don't have to be with american fia. the locals are now advised to hunker down and wait for the next stage, and most is an unprecedented natural catastrophe. for more now, i'm joined by honda cloak. she's

a professor of hydrology at the university of reading. in the u. k. professor, it's good to have you with this. i'd like to get your professional opinion. do you think that the people in spain did they have adequate warning about this precipitation in the flooding, or do you suspect that people did not take that warning? serious? i mean, that's an excellent question because so very many people have died. so we can see that something has gone wrong here. suddenly that were full of costs out of heavy rainfall before this happened. and i could see that sitting and reading but something was going to happen in this region on. yeah, nice morning. so i was wondering, did not reach those people on the ground. we can hear people talking bad, but they didn't receive the warning in time. and then was already voted to the and if we already knew the rain was going to full, then definitely something has gone wrong. and it sounds like this was a perfect storm. it sounds like you had people who maybe were not aware of what was

about to happen literally driving in to the flood waters. is there anything that could have been done to save them or to protect? i mean, this does terrifying it and it is one of the worst things that you can do in a sub situation is destroyed in flood water. and some of these people were cleaning up to where at the risk, right? some of them may not have the least it might happen. it's very difficult to imagine an unprecedented flood the sweeps vehicles on, you know, off the road in terms of upside down. that's a very difficult if it's never happened to you just want to take that seriously. but there's definitely more that we need to do to prepare for this kind of flooding in the future. and i think the old doherty's will need to ask themselves some very clear questions about how they can do this better in what can we do? i mean, i understand that, you know, people. so people are saying that they received in the span of 4 to 8 hours as much rain as in an entire year. i mean,

is that something that we should be preparing to, to see on a more regular basis, moving forward from big trucks like this have what has happened? that doesn't happen very often, which is why we don't remember them. and but we know that this area is not risk of these big flash floods, but this was an awful lot of rain. and it certainly we can see those fingerprints of climate change on these types of rainfall events and these floods. so we must be preparing for these types of events back to the, the 2nd stream, weather condition, know what is known as a code drop triggered the storms. and as you say, these things have happened before. how do we know that climate change is influencing the intensity of what we're seeing right now? the physics told us that as we wore my atmosphere and wilma options, and that means more water can get, drill will not into the storm clouds,

which means more heavy rain will fall out so that a storm that might have happened anyway. we'll have heavier, rain associated with them, and we've seen a number of them this year as well across the world. but it looks like unprecedented rangel advisor, a honda clue, professor hydrology at the university of writing in the u. k. we appreciate your time in your analysis and insights tonight. thank you. thank you. what was less than a week before americans had to the polls to elect a new president, both democrat and republican campaigns are in damage control mode, racist remarks. and this week's trump rally in new york caused an uproar, especially a comedian labeling puerto rico as an island of trash. president joe biden's responding gaff calling trump supporters. garbage caused even more trouble that prompted republican nominee. donald trump taking to the campaign trail in wisconsin

in and you see it right there in a garbage truck. the former president has been campaigning, c, swing states. so has his democratic rival, vice president, pamela harris spoke candidates of accused each other of sewing division much of the polarization taking place in us politics today really began almost a decade ago when the 2016 us presidential election. cobra russian influence deeply affected that election undermining many voters confidence that their elections were saved from foreign medlink in the year since us authorities claim they have learned the lessons and are better equipped to deal with a threat. but they also warn that russia hasn't backed off, and other countries are also trying their hand to bending us voters to their will. when right wing commentator tim pool announced just over a week ago, 2 was 2000000 followers that he was stepping back from his successful youtube show . he said it was for personal reasons. so with that being said,

it's kind of the weirdest way to announce that i'm pursuing, you know, my family life to the best of my abilities. and i would many speculated that the real reason had something to do with the recent department of justice investigation, claiming that he was being paid by russia to spread pro trump this information. the indictment alleges that russia funneled $10000000.00 to $3.00 political commentators, one of them assumed to be pul, laundered through us base shell company without disclosing to them that the funding was for an authority say it's part of moscow's effort to influence the 2024 election, which they say has become more sophisticated since its 1st major efforts in 2016. although efforts to counter interference have also improved in 2024 in my opinion, and we have a good reason to be a bit more domestic, so to speak. the 1st has been and you know, with smaller than in 2016. and the key reason is is because the basically bred the performance on the side of american intelligence agencies as well as been

responsibility for relevant media, oregon. still it proves to be a game of cat and mouse, while the department of justice managed to shut down the phone, the company funneling moscow's money to $10.00 pool. russia continues to generate a flood of posts from fake accounts on social media platforms such as x, instagram and took talk in that us voters watch in the us intelligence community also says to other foreign powers or targeting us is upcoming election. iran and china hotel, iran appears to be focusing its efforts at preventing from, from taking office, targeting particular groups, through fake websites such as efram majority in debt, black voters, and not our wor, aimed at veterans to china. according to us, intelligence does not appear to have a preference in the presidential election, but as focusing efforts on, on sitting down valid politicians with into china, produce some to investigators expose the chinese linked online campaign against marsher blackwell. republican congresswoman is aggressive, antique china stands has garnered national attention. we're going to have to break

a lot more china save america. the beijing has insisted that it does not intend to and will not interfere in the us election. while us and national security officials have prepared for the threat for an meddling, they haven't ruled out new methods that may only come to light after the votes are cast. or here's a reminder now of our top stories. germany has ordered 3 and radian console is on his territory to close following the execution by and say wrong of a dual german rainy and citizen down sheets sharma was put to death on terrorism charges. following the trial, the human rights groups say was a shame. and officials in spain say at least a $155.00 people are dead after to rental range and sparked flash flooding in the east of the country. the regions of valencia and mercy, i have been part is to this as the country begins 3 days of morning for the day,

you want your dw news, i'll be back in the top of the hour with more world news. i hope to see you that the questions category issues or thoughts say what the the, the hard working hands non stop production lines.
