    Heavy rains have been causing major damage and loss of human lives in Bosnia and Herzegovina, Serbia, Kosovo, Albania, Hungary, and Montenegro. 

    Emergency services in Serbia are searching for one after the country has been affected by severe floods. He is believed to have drowned. Another body was found in the region of Raska. The unusual temperatures led to heavy rains all across the Western Balkans. Dozens of people were evacuated by the Serbian police, and the Government sent the army to help the struggling communities.

    Kosovo is severely affected by the floods as well. 120 families were evacuated, and the torrents caused damage to roads and polluted the drinking water, creating a water crisis in the western, northwestern, and northern parts of the country. Dozens of villages were flooded, and in some cases, the water completely covered the homes. The emergency services had to pull several people out of their cars, after becoming trapped.
