We remind you that heavy rains and floods caused by storm 'Boris' continue to wreak havoc in Central and Eastern Europe. The death toll has reached 17 people. 

Tens of thousands of people were forced to leave their homes in Poland, Austria, Czechia, Hungary, Romania, and Slovakia. The flood breached dams, flooded streets, and caused power outages. In some places, entire neighborhoods were underwater.

Due to the floods, Poland declared a state of emergency in the southern regions. The governments of the countries continue to fight the consequences of the disaster and provide assistance to those affected.
