Greece declared a day of national mourning after floods on the outskirts of Athens left at least 15 dead Wednesday, flipping over cars, smashing into homes and cutting off highway traffic. The flash floods turned roads into raging torrents of mud and debris inundated houses and businesses. Drivers scrambled out of their vehicles as cars were washed away. Rescue crews searched basement homes for residents who may have been trapped. Twelve of the people killed — four women and eight men — were found in or near Mandra, a small town on the western outskirts of Athens that was hardest-hit by the flood. The coast guard recovered the bodies of two more men believed to have been swept out to sea by the flood. Floodwater carrying debris charged toward the coast, sinking fishing boats in a small harbor. Several people were being treated in a hospital for various injuries, including hypothermia. There were fears the death toll could rise further as rescue crews searched flooded homes and streets on the western outskirts of Athens.
The flooding came after a severe overnight storm brought this huge amount of rain right onto this only specific area, something that makes a lot of activists believe that this phenomena might not have been "an act of Nature", but a case of Weather War. Although investigators would be looking into whether factors such as shoddy or illegal construction might have contributed to the severity of the flooding, nobody is investigating the numerous complaints about chemtrails and weather manipulation. On the contrary, this "story" is consindered as a "conspiracy theory" and labelled as "fake news". The deaths came a day after authorities declared a state of emergency on the small Aegean Sea island of Symi due to torrential rainfall there that flooded homes and shops, swept vehicles into the sea and cut power after the local power station was flooded. And this is Greece, we are talking, the country which is consindered to have the best and most balanced climate of the planet. Of course, the main stream media had already prepared their narative: "This is the result of... Climate Change"! |
