Italy’s Emilia-Romagna region sees three rivers overflow after Boris wreaks havoc across Central and Eastern Europe.
About 1,000 people have been evacuated in the northern Italian region of Emilia-Romagna after devastating floods brought by Storm Boris that had wreaked havoc across Central and Eastern Europe.
The development came on Thursday before a meeting between the leaders of four flood-hit European Union countries – Poland, the Czech Republic, Slovakia and Austria – and European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen in the southwestern Polish city of Wroclaw.
Boris caused the worst flooding in more than 20 years from Romania to Poland over the past week, killing at least 24 people before moving west.
In Italy, schools were closed and rail services were suspended in several provinces on Thursday.
