The death toll from Spain's worst floods in a generation has climbed to 205, rescuers said on Friday, with the number expected to rise as more people are believed to be missing. 

The agency coordinating emergency services in the eastern Valencia region said 202 people had been confirmed dead there, with officials in Castilla-La Mancha and Andalusia previously announcing a combined three deaths in their regions.
