Emergency service workers recovered scores of bodies in the eastern Spanish region of Valencia on Wednesday after heavy rains battered the country's eastern and southern areas, causing flooding and disrupting air and rail travel.

Three days of mourning were declared after some regions experienced a year's worth of rainfall in just hours.  Prime Minister Sanchez urged citizens to remain vigilant as the danger persisted and three days of mourning were declared in the European nation's worst such disaster in more than 50 years.
