Flooding in Albania
Heavy rainfalls and unusually warm weather have caused flooding in the northwestern region of Albania since January 4, 2010.
Furthermore, the authorities were forced to open the gates of a hydropower station dam to prevent it from breaking. More than
3,500 people have already been evacuated and more than 2000 houses and 10,500 hectares of agricultural land are flooded. The
International Charter on Space and Major Disasters was triggered to provide satellite imagery for flood mapping and to support
the aid response.
