sokan meghaltak brazíliában esőzések és áradások miatt

A Jacui folyó árvize a Brazília déli részén, Rio Grande do Sul államban lévő Praia de Paquetában 2024. május 3-án.

Legalább 39 ember meghalt, 68 pedig eltűnt a Brazília déli részén lévő Rio Grande do Sul államot sújtó heves esőzésekben – a helyi katasztrófavédelem utolsó jelentése szerint. A közlemény adatai alapján több mint 24 ezren kényszerültek otthonaik elhagyására.

A Brazil Földtani Intézet szerint a valaha volt legmagasabb vízszintet rögzítették egyes térségekben a hivatalos mérések 150 évvel ezelőtti kezdete óta, a katasztrófavédelem közleménye pedig a továbbiakban arról adott tájékoztatást, hogy ilyen heves esőzések 80 éve nem voltak Brazíliában.

A megáradt Taquari-folyó több várost elöntött és egy hidat is elmosott, egy vízerőmű gátja összeomlott Bento Goncalves város környékén. A bajbajutott területek fölött, folyamatosan helikopterek köröznek, sokan a háztetőkön várják a segítséget.

Rio Grande do Sul államban sok helyen áramkimaradásokról számoltak be. Rio Grande do Sul kormányzója, Eduardo Leite hangsúlyozta, hogy a hatóságok minden tőlük telhetőt megtesznek.
