    Slovenia grapples with its "most severe natural disaster "

    Slovenia grapples with its "most severe natural disaster "

    The continuous heavy rainfall resulted in flooding that claimed the lives of at least four people. The damages caused by the disaster are estimated to exceed 500 mn euros, Euronews has reported.

    The anomalous weather conditions posed a true challenge for Slovenians. In just one day, this Southern European country received almost a month's worth of rainfall. Two-thirds of its territory fell under the grasp of the calamity. Numerous buildings were submerged, roads and bridges were blocked, and tens of thousands of homes were left without electricity.

    According to Slovenia's Prime Minister, Robert Golob, the inflicted damage is unimaginable, as nearly two-thirds of Slovenia have been affected in some way, and the return to normal life will require enormous efforts.

    Thousands of people were forced to evacuate, with many being rescued by helicopters or emergency service personnel using boats.

    Chairwoman of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen, promised assistance from the EU to Slovenia, describing the aftermath left by the disaster as "heartbreaking." The Slovenian government also reached out to NATO, requesting support by sending military helicopters and prefabricated bridges.

    Neighboring countries are also grappling with extreme weather conditions. Austria, for instance, experienced heavy rains. Last week, in the southern region of Carinthia, one person lost their life after falling into a river that had been swollen by the torrential waters.

    As substantial flooding affects central Europe, other parts of the continent are facing intense heatwaves. Additionally, in the popular tourist mountain resort of Sho, Georgia, 11 people lost their lives due to a landslide. Around 200 people were evacuated as a result.
