2010 floodings [ edit ]

During July 2010, Gheorghe Flutur , president of Suceava County , told the Mediafax news agency his region was one of the worst hit in the country on the morning of the 29th, as he coordinated local flood relief work in his stricken county. [5] Later that day, the Siret river threatened to break through the dykes protecting the town of ?endreni , as locals and emergency services reinforced the dykes with truckloads of sandbags to prevent the river breaking out and flooding the town.
