rains boats on by storm. boris could persist through monday. a journalist, a bruce penny, a as in prague and earlier he told me more about the situation in the czech republic. it's been getting worse as the day goes on. i've been watching the news to us in the morning. it looked like it was under control, but, but by the time the sun started going down, they showed various areas of the country that were under water. you know, at least a half a meter of, of water up against houses and people walking in the streets with big weight loads . and so it has deteriorated quite a bit and they're expecting that is probably going to get a little worse. the northeastern part of the country seems to be the one that's going to get the hardest right now. your, your previous reporter mention, google losey. it's an all and apparently the dam burst of the stream from them and it's flooded to google loudly. but there's places not very far away in the czech republic, one place called jessica, this and another one called your septic. and then they are also the most recent photo show that they're inundated with water at the moment. and in fact we,

there was even photo of a, a military having to come in and rescue one of the residents. so you sent it got the leap by helicopter, because apparently the whole town is now cut off because of flooding. just the incredibly deteriorating situation. as you say, bruce, tell us how our check authority is responding to all these to you know, give them a lot of credit. they took all the measures they could uh, before this. i mean, everyone's been warned since the middle of the last week that this was coming up. they cleared away debris from under bridges from canals they uh, fortified the banks of rivers. they had been doing pre emptive evacuations of people for the last more than 24 hours. now it was 10500 people evacuated. but i can see from the news that i didn't want 200 more here. 33 there. so it's a, it's probably gone up quite a bit. so, you know, i do credit to check authorities with doing what they could mobilize in

a 100000 byron and volunteer firemen at a time to the reality of the storm has been overwhelming. i think for everyone in the country and certainly for the authorities, they knew it was a once in a century storm, but um, you can prepare for everything that you're going to get until you see the reality. what happens that was to unless bruce penny and prague for us many thanks, bruce, appreciate it. thank you. jerry dw is julia sal daily. had the stop died on the storm and flooding from the southern german city of paso. well, this is it. weighs in here is not as dramatic as we've seen in the con, neighboring countries to the east, like the tech republic. uh there was a break in the wet rain up in the past few days. it was raining a lot. there was a break yesterday evening and this morning it started raining again and rain throughout the afternoon, but the city is ready in case more water were to come in the next few days and i can show you how they've been preparing. for example here. this road which runs

alongside the danube river has been closed. people can't drive their cars here. and as we see the streets here in behind, this area that has been blocked off is filled with water and is not really high. but the water had been coming from the down you from the river right there, but also from the drains. and the city is also started preparing by putting up sand bags at the ground floors of buildings and also putting up barriers in front of doors on the ground floor so that water might be able to stay out. so the city is waiting and preparing. but in the meantime, the really dramatic situation is right across the border in austria, which is very close to paso. now there, we've seen that, especially in the area of lower austria, which surrounds the capital vienna. the situation is dramatic, and a fire man has died while trying to work in a home that had been flooded. and even in the city of vienna,

where the vin river runs through the river is not completely overflowing, but it is very high. and in some parts of the city, some full invite bike paths along the river has been overflowed. so there is quite a state of alerts also in neighboring neighboring austria right now. and we've just been looking at some, some pictures of that julia. what can we expect in the coming dies? so we've heard from major ologist that the rain is expected to move to the west. so coming from the eastern countries compared to germany from poland for the tech republic, into germany. and experts expect that a possibly the highest level of the rivers here might only be reach tomorrow on monday or even on tuesday morning. so the situation is currently one of wait and see there is an additional worry brought in by the experts. they say that the level of, of snowfall is going to go up. that means that there's going to be possibly more rain coming down instead of snow that will also contributes to rivers rising. and we're

going to see that probably in bavaria, but also further north and the eastern state of saxony, where the elk river comes in from the czech republic and the high is expected very possibly tomorrow or on tuesday. the situation of white and c, julia salt delhi and passel for us. thanks julia. to other news now in russia and ukraine has completed a major exchange of 206 prisoners ukrainian president flawed him. his lensky stays the swamps, ukrainian soldiers, both the gods and police offices, were at least in part because of ukraine's recent incursion into russian territory . the swap was mediated by the united arab emirates. emotions ran high among these ukrainian sewage. just treat better. you did after russian captivity a mom. me. so the last time,
