Heavy Storms Cause Severe Damage - Spain

La Pedrera bridge in Aldea del Fresno after the passage of La Dana, on September 5, 2023, in Aldea del Fresno, Madrid (Spain). This pipeline supplies 270,000 people in 71 municipalities in the province of Toledo. The isolated depression in high atmospheric levels (DANA) that has passed over the Peninsula this weekend has left at least four people dead, another three people still missing, dozens of people evacuated from their homes, road closures, delays and cancellations of numerous railroad lines and air flights. It has also caused serious material damage for which many municipalities are already considering requesting the declaration of an area affected by a Civil Protection emergency. The Civil Guard continues with the search for the 83-year-old man swept away by the current in Villamanta and the middle-aged man swept away with his family by the Alberche river.
