A man was found dead and two people were missing on Saturday after torrential rain caused severe flooding on the Greek island of Crete, emergency workers said.
A man in his fifties died while trapped inside his car as rain began to fall on the southern Greek island, a popular holiday destination.
It is reported about numerous damage in coastal villages, where roads have turned into rivers taking everything in their path.
According to emergency services, a woman was slightly injured after she was also trapped in a car.
At least nine vehicles surrounded by water had to be rescued on Saturday evening.
Emergency services received more than 450 calls within an hour on Friday morning.
Eight tourists and a security guard were also trapped at the archaeological museum in the coastal resort town of Sitia.
All coves on the island, popular hiking spots for tourists, were closed to the public until further notice.
Human-caused climate destruction is amplifying extreme weather, including floods, heat waves and droughts, scientists say, with extreme events becoming more frequent and intense.
