Woman and Her Dog Rescued by Helicopter During Deadly Flash Floods in Spain

Cameras captured the incredible moment a woman was rescued from her home as Spain grapples with devastating flooding.
The woman was found trapped in her wooden home in Utiel, Valencia, with the water up to her waist. But the entire time she was awaiting help, she held her pets close.
In a clip shared by Javier Ballesteros to his X, formerly Twitter, account @JaviNakama_, rescue workers from the Consorci Provincial de Bombers de València are seen dropping down via helicopter and coming to the aid of the woman.
The woman can be seen carrying a small dog in her arms, along with what appears to be a cat carrier floating in a box on the gushing water.
Ballesteros wrote in a post translated from Spanish: "We managed to get the helicopter to see us and rescue this woman in Utiel who was trapped in her wooden house with her cats and dog. Incredible rescue."
The video shows the woman reaching out gratefully to the rescue worker before a second helicopter line is dropped from above. The woman and all her pets are then attached to the line alongside the rescue worker.
First needing to go deeper into the water to give the helicopter room, the woman and her animals are airlifted to safety.
In a positive update from Ballesteros, he confirmed he had "just been given the news that both the lady and her dog and her kittens are all safe."
