Heavy rains have sparked massive flooding across El Salvador, killing at least 40 people and leaving several more missing.

El Salvador has been hammered by days of rain which led to authorities declaring a state of emergency for the country. Officials have already said they expect the death toll to rise significantly as rescue crews make their way into areas that have been cut off due to the conditions.
