No effort to be spared to normalise situation in flood-hit area, says PM

Prime Minister Zoran Milanovic on Thursday gave reassurances that no efforts would be spared in bringing the situation in flood-hit east Croatia back to normal.
 

At the beginning of his cabinet's meeting, Milanovic outlined the chronology of what had happened during the recent natural disaster and what had been done to bring the situation under control so far.

He reiterated that currently, firefighters and local inhabitants were engaged in cleanup efforts, including the removal of carcasses and flood debris, and that health authorities were taking all measures to prevent epidemic outbreaks, while the power provider HEP was repairing the grid to restore power supplies.

Local residents who cannot come back to their destroyed houses will be provided with accommodation as long as necessary.

Also, the levee in the village of Rajevo Selo, that broke 14 days ago when the River Sava burst its banks, is being mended, according to Milanovic.
