STORY: Spanish military units are searching for bodies in rivers in the country’s east.
Local officials reported on Tuesday that at least 89 people are still missing after the region’s deadly floods.
The count includes only those reported missing by family, who provided information and DNA.
More missing people may still be unreported.
More than 200 people were confirmed to have died last week, after heavy rains caused rivers to overflow, flooding suburbs south of Valencia and sweeping away cars and bridges, and flooding homes and parking areas.
The court said coroners had done hundreds of autopsies, but many victims have yet to be identified.
The Science Ministry announced on Tuesday that a research vessel will arrive in Valencia on Nov. 9 to assist in the search.
It said the vessel can capture detailed images of the seafloor and reach difficult areas.
Some think the missing may have been carried out to sea.
Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez said he is setting aside 10.6 billion euros, or about $11.6 billion, to help victims.
The aid includes money for small businesses and freelancers, billions of euros in loans, and full cleanup costs, with the national government covering half of infrastructure repairs.
More than 100,000 cars were damaged by the floods, and the damage to businesses could reach over 10 billion euros, or almost $11 billion.
