Four months after several villages in the region of Karlovo were flooded, two of them are now under a partial state of emergency because of a new risk of a disaster.

The emergency situation in Bogdan and Karavelovo will last for a week and the reason is the high water level of the rivers passing through them, the mayor of the municipality of Karlovo, Emil Kabaivanov, reported. The level of sediment that the water carries has also increased. Tomorrow, the clearing of the riverbeds in the two villages will begin. "People are worried, especially in the area that suffered the most during the floods in September," the mayor added.
