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.

Luhansk the first Ukrainian region fully occupied by Russia

A Russia-appointed official in Ukraine’s occupied Luhansk region was quoted by AP on Monday saying that Moscow’s forces have overrun all of it, one of four regions Russia annexed from Ukraine in September 2022. If confirmed, it would make Luhansk the first Ukrainian region fully occupied by Russia after more than three years of war with international peace efforts led by the US failing to make progress on halting the fighting. Russian President Vladimir Putin has effectively rejected a ceasefire and hasn’t budged from his demands, which include Moscow’s control over the four illegally annexed regions.
