City washed into the sea! Flash flood in Arhavi, Artvin, Turkey
Heavy rains cause flooding in northeastern Turkey.
Around 200 people have been evacuated
due to flooding in Turkey’s eastern Black
Sea region. Six people trapped in the Arhavi
district and nine in the Murgul district were
taken to safe areas. There are also electricity
cuts in the region. The Energy and Natural
Resources Ministry reported that 3,045
subscribers were left without electricity due
to floods in the neighboring provinces of Artvin
and Rize. The energy of 9,650 subscribers was
cut off due to security measures. Meanwhile,
Turkey’s Search and Rescue Association (AKUT)
rescued 18 people. At least six people lost, with
two people still missing, in flooding
and landslides triggered by heavy rain last week
in the Rize province. While a 1.5-meter puddle
of water has come up in front of the buildings
near the Black Sea Coastal Road, the workers
who have been working in the tea plantations have
been stranded in the gardens. A building of
a hydroelectric power plant has collapsed
and drifted away with the flood. Several citizens
have been stranded in buildings as the entrances
of the buildings have been under water.
