Torrential rain on Wednesday forced the closure of schools, colleges, and universities, while hospital and health services were significantly reduced. Urban transport and high-speed train services were also halted due to flood damage to railway tracks.
More than 3,000 people had to be evacuated from their homes on the banks of the Guadalhorce, Campanilla, Vélez and Benamargosa rivers. The displaced residents have sought refuge in sports halls, where emergency aid is being distributed.
The city continues to grapple with the aftermath of the severe weather, with authorities focusing on rescue operations and providing support to those affected by the crisis.
