— Resources are being deployed to eliminate the consequences of the flood; trenches are being dug in the most problematic areas to allow the water to drain. However, our own resources are insufficient—the situation is atypical. The difficulty lies in the fact that the water is groundwater and is rising again; pumping out the water is currently only providing a temporary result, Babushkina reported.
Earlier, residents of Sverdlovsk were advised to monitor the water level themselves.
