The water wave is traveling down the Danube at a speed of 60 kilometers per day. It has left Batina and is flowing towards Aljmaš, Erdut, and Vukovar. However, the Drava is now causing significant problems.
The peak of the wave in Vukovar is expected during the day. The current water level of the Danube is 724 centimeters, which means that the record from 2006 has been surpassed.
In Croatian Waters, they say that the condition of the levees is good and that they are prepared for the worst. A coastal fortification has been set up along the entire Danube coast. At five critical points in Vukovar, 75,000 sandbags have been placed, and another 20,000 are ready if needed.
