Flash flooding has demolished houses and commercial premises, carried away vehicles, submerged medical facilities and left widespread devastation.

Officials declared a state of emergency and shuttered local schools and nurseries.

A representative for Ub City Hall said: “Families have lost everything.

“Homes, stories, memories: lives were shaken in just a few hours.

“Now, more than ever, our city needs the strength of its people.”

They continued: “Teams from the Fire Department, Municipal Guard, and the Municipal Civil Defence Coordination have been working since the early hours of the morning, surveying the flooded locations, working on emergency solutions, and monitoring the affected areas.

“Teams are already working to restore services as quickly as possible.”
