A three-story building is in a shambles near Turin, Italy, following torrential rains on Sunday. The worst flooding since 1913 turned the northern part of the country into a disaster area and killed at least 54 people across southern Europe and North Africa. With hundreds of people reported missing, the number of dead was expected to rise as rescuers reached isolated villages and searched through the rubble of destroyed homes. The flooding swept away bridges and whole sections of highway.
