Major Catastrophic Floods in Germany, Belgium 2021 Matthew 24:39

Major Catastrophic Floods in Germany, Belgium 2021 Emergency workers are still hunting for survivors, while others begin the enormous task of clearing debris, in the hope of preventing further damage. But people have been warned that danger remains imminent, with dykes along one river from Belgium to the Netherlands at risk of collapse, and officials in Germany telling people: “No all-clear!” Large parts of a dam near Cologne in the North Rhine-Westphalia region have broken away and there is “enormous pressure” on the structure because of the high water level, posing “an acute risk” the dam could rupture. More people are being evacuated from the area today.

Death toll from catastrophic floods in Germany and Belgium exceeds 150

The death toll from disastrous flooding in western Europe has risen above 150 as rescue workers toiled to clear up the devastation and prevent further damage.
Key points:

• The devastating floods are the worst natural disaster Germany has faced 

• Rescue workers and volunteers are digging through sludge in parts of western Europe, where the number of people who died in flash floods is now over 170 – and as the rushing waters reach Austria.

  Floodwaters are receding in Germany, Belgium and the Netherlands, where many have been left with wrecked homes, hundreds have been evacuated and officials continue to fret over the state of a major dam.

  The spotlight in many areas has shifted to handing out cash donations for people to buy urgently needed goods, provide accommodation and compensation for those left homeless, and to continue hunting for survivors.

  But more bodies are expected to be found as the waters lower and reveal the extent of the devastation.

Matthew 24:39 – And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
