In the night from Thursday, August 3, to Friday, August 4, strong storms have led to flooding and mudslides in parts of Carinthia, Burgenland and Styria and the whole of Slovenia.
At present, four lives have been lost as a result of the storm disaster.
The emergency forces are working around the clock to supply people with drinking water, make roads passable again, pump out cellars, provide people with physical and psychological care, secure slopes, etc.
The extent of the damage will now only gradually become visible once the water and mud masses have disappeared.
