A series of devastating floods has swept across Central Europe, leaving a trail of destruction and claiming the lives of at least 20 people.
The torrential storms, driven by Storm Boris, have forced tens of thousands of people to evacuate their homes in Austria, the Czech Republic, Hungary, Romania, and Slovakia.
Poland has been particularly hard hit, with the government declaring a state of natural disaster in several regions. Prime Minister Donald Tusk has allocated €234 million to aid flood-affected areas. The southwestern city of Nysa has issued an evacuation order for its entire population.
The Czech Republic has also faced severe flooding, with towns in northern Moravia still without power. Despite a decline in flood alerts, large parts of the country remain submerged. The government has deployed thousands of emergency personnel to assist in rescue efforts.
Romania has been grappling with the aftermath of the floods, with seven fatalities reported. The government has announced €20 million in aid for affected areas, and thousands of homes remain without electricity.
Austria has also suffered significant flooding, with five deaths reported in the capital, Sankt Polten.
As Storm Boris continues to move eastward, Slovakia and Hungary are bracing for potential flooding. Croatia is also on alert due to heavy rainfall in the region. (ILKHA)
