About 1,000 volunteers are helping the military and police in clearing houses and streets in the flood-affected villages in the region of Karlovo. Coordinating teams are also there. In addition to the help of the volunteers, the headquarters are also calling for the inclusion of additional small and heavy equipment.

In Karlovo and Bogdan, work continues on restoring the water supply. There are fewer volunteers working in Slatina because the village is nearly cleared. People who were left without home are expected to be provided with temporary housing.
