MADRID, 3 November. Residents of the flood-hit Spanish town of Paiporta threw mud and shouted insults at King Felipe VI and his entourage during his visit to the natural disaster area.
The ABC newspaper reported that the king tried to calm the angry flood survivors as they shouted, "Murderers!" and throwing mud at him and government officials.
As a result, the monarch's visit to Paiport was cut short.
On 29 October, the Spanish National Meteorological Agency issued weather warnings for various areas of the country due to heavy rainfall. In the southern and eastern parts of Spain, where the rainfall has been particularly intense, the danger level has been raised to maximum. The eastern Spanish province of Valencia has been worst affected. So far 220 people have been reported dead and the search for the missing continues.
