For a third day now, work for overcoming the consequences of the torrential rains in Karlovo, which flooded houses and washed away entire streets in the Bulgarian town, continues.

There was another river overflow during the past night and areas, previously cleaned by the volunteers, were once again submerged under muddy waters.

In an interview with BNR, the chairman of the Municipal Council in Karlovo, Donyo Todorov, said that it was necessary to dig the nearby gully in order to stop the flow of incoming water. According to Donyo Todorov, some unscrupulous residents of Karlovo, who continue to throw their waste into the river and ravine, also contribute to the floods.
