Severe flooding in Central Europe has led to widespread evacuations and fatalities, with the Czech Republic and Poland among the hardest-hit areas. In the Czech Republic, authorities issued the highest flood warnings in 90 locations, prompting evacuations of up to 10,000 residents in Opava and leaving 260,000 households without power. Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk confirmed the first death due to flooding in the Kłodzko district, where 1,600 people have been evacuated, and conditions are described as 'dramatic'. The rising waters have overwhelmed rivers, with the Glatzer Neisse reaching 6.65 meters, well above the normal level of one meter. In Poland, towns like Głuchołazy have also faced mandatory evacuations as rivers overflow, while Romania has reported four deaths linked to the flooding. Meteorologists warn that heavy rains could continue, potentially worsening the situation further.
