Description

Activation time (UTC): 2020-06-26 11:12:00
Event time (UTC): 2020-06-26 08:00:00
Event type: Flood (Riverine flood)

Activation reason:
Recent heavy rains in eastern part of Europe have affected several countries. In particular, one of the affected area involves the upper basin of the Prut River (especially in Ukraine, and subsequently Romania and Republic of Moldova), where there is a significant increase level, exceeding the Danger Level (the most severe of the 3 warning levels). The high amount of rainfall fallen caused extreme floods also along Jiu River that affected houses, roads, bridges, phone lines and other assets. Due to the critical situation the General Inspectorate for Emergency Situation is planning some evacuations.
