Torrential rain and flooding in Spain’s Catalonia region leave two people dead and one person missing, local and regional authorities report. The incidents occur near Barcelona, with one death linked to a wall collapse in the town of Tordera.
Spanish officials warn that the extreme weather poses ongoing danger around Barcelona and is moving north toward the neighbouring province of Girona. Authorities issue safety advisories, urging residents to stay indoors as rivers face the risk of overflowing. Catalan leader Salvador Illa publicly confirms the death following the collapse, while other reports describe a second fatality associated with the flooding event. Across outlets, the core details remain consistent: heavy rainfall, flooding, the death toll of two, and one missing person, alongside warnings that conditions could worsen along the affected corridor toward Girona.
