The flood in Benitses at 17-11-2010

This, coupled with the unregulated changes made to the environment following the rerouting of the river developments that had been made in recent years along its course, caused the river to overflow so that parked cars drifted away, homes and basements flooded, and generally caused damage seen for the first time our region.
An important role in blocking the free flow of water in the river was played by the sanitation and water pipes which held large amounts of wood and other rubbish, and so the water flooded with these catastrophic results.
