JEKABPILS: Latvian authorities on Sunday (Jan 15) urged residents of certain central areas to evacuate their homes in response to the worst flooding the Baltic state has seen in decades. 'It will be near impossible to get you out from among the ice cold sludge once it rushes into your homes,' Raivis Ragain
JEKABPILS: Latvian authorities on Sunday urged residents of certain central areas to evacuate their homes in response to the worst flooding the Baltic state has seen in decades.
Particularly exposed are Jekabpils and the town of Plavinas and surrounding areas, where the flow of the Daugava river has been blocked by pack ice that drifted in from Belarus. "These are the worst floods since 1981," he said, adding that current water levels are just five centimetres below that year's all-time record.
"Thank God nobody has drowned or been injured so far," army captain Aleksands Cviguns, head of the military rescue operation, told AFP.
