Homes Submerged as Heavy Rains Cause Devastating Floods in Romania
Heavy Rainfall Causes Major Flooding in Covasna County, Romania. Homes and properties in the villages of Băcel and Lunca Mărcușului, Covasna County, have been severely affected by flooding following two days of intense rainfall. The Târlung River, swollen by the downpour, burst its banks, submerging houses and farmland. "The situation is critical," reports Adrian Jătăreanu, a reporter for Știrile Kanal D, who is currently on the scene. "Many homes are completely underwater, and residents are being evacuated by boat." Firefighters and emergency services are working to help those affected, and the risk of further flooding remains high. The scale of the disaster is reminiscent of the 2018 floods in the region, raising concerns about the long-term impact on the community. However, the swift response of the emergency services offers a glimmer of hope for those affected.
