Flooding in Russia’s Orenburg remains “critical”.

According to the mayor of Orenburg, the situation regarding flooding in the city is still extremely severe. He warned that water levels are expected to continue rising in the upcoming days, as reported by Reuters.

Over 4,000 individuals in the Orenburg region near the border of Kazakhstan have been evacuated due to the flooding caused by a dam breach, as declared by Russia on Saturday.

In addition, the Orsk oil refinery, situated in Orenburg, has halted its operations temporarily on Sunday. This decision was made to prevent any potential ecological risks, as stated by the plant’s press service via a Russian news agency.
