Rainstorms and heavy floods hit large parts of Bosnia, killing at least 14 people

0
A severe rainstorm struck Bosnia overnight Friday, killing at least 14 people and flooding several towns and villages in central and southern parts of the country. Rescue services in the south of the country reported several people missing and called on volunteers and the army to assist. In the towns of Jablanica and Kiseljak, officials said the power was off overnight and there was no cellphone service. The Jablanica fire station says that the town was completely inaccessible because roads and railways were closed. The heavy rains and strong winds were also reported in neighboring Croatia, where several roads were closed and the capital of Zagreb prepared for the swollen Sava River to burst its banks.
