Flooding in Argentina

As a result of the heavy rains in southern Brazil, the Uruguay River, which forms the border between Argentina and Uruguay, flooded. The city of Concordia, Entre Ríos, in Argentina, where the river runs through, was particularly badly affected with approximately 500 people having to be evacuated.

Emergency response operations continued until flood waters receded. Flooding also impacted other locations in close proximity to the Uruguay River and its tributaries. There was disruptions to road travel and power supply.
