Entire areas in Trikala and Karditsa have turned into a vast lagoon, with the rescue crews unable to reach – for the 4th day – many blocked villages.

The rescues of trapped citizens are carried out where it is possible with great difficulty – with boats and helicopters – while levels of the municipalities together with volunteers go to villages blocked by landslides and damage to infrastructure to distribute water, food and medicines needed by the elderly, or people with chronic health problems.

Destruction and agony in the villages of Trikala

The picture is similar in the region of Trikala, where rescues of trapped citizens in villages that sank under the water continue

The municipality of Farkadonas has turned into a huge lake where efforts are being made to free citizens in various areas.

In Megala Kalyvia and Agia Kyriaki, villages near the city of Trikala, which received the attack of bad weather, the situation is dramatic, as in other municipal departments adjacent to the Pinios River.

Landslides and landslides in the massif are continuous and the machines of the P.E. Trikala are trying to find solutions as bridges have collapsed and roads have been closed.

Larissa: At 10 meters the height of Pinios – Suburbs and Piniada were flooded

Larissa is on high alert, as the level of the Pinios river rose to 10 meters during the night and an all-night battle was fought with the forces of nature to prevent the water from reaching the city of Larissa.

Rescuers today continue to operate in the flooded western suburbs of the city even with boats in order to free residents in various parts of the city, who are “trapped” in water.

At the same time rescue operations are being carried out in the village of Pineiada, which has been flooded, as well as the village of Keramidi.
