Наводнение в Тбилиси

Наводнение, вызванное в результате сильных дождей, стало причиной разрушений и многочисленных жертв в центральной части Тбилиси. Река Вера вышедшая из берегов, затопила автомагистраль Ваке-Сабуртало, разрушила инфраструктуру города, повредила машины.

Как сообщается, жертвами стихии стали восемь человек, и существует вероятность того, что число жертв будет расти, поскольку несколько людей все еще числятся пропавшими без вести.

Наводнения также разрушило зоопарк Тбилиси, из которого бежали приблизительно тридцать животных в том числе львы, тигры и медведи. Некоторые из животных впоследствии были пойманы, некоторые убиты из-за угрозы жизни для населения, некоторые по-прежнему бродят по улицам. Премьер-министр Ираклий Гарибашвили призвал граждан оставаться в своих домах.
