Turkey Floods

I published a story about floods in Germany, almost a month ago. But now, Turkey surrender floods. According to local authorities, 57 people died and over a hundred people loss. Hydroelectric Plant couldn't carry rain mass and then water gates opened. Floods were reaching the local area when local authorities warned people about floods.




Floods were quick:

This video was recorded by a citizen who is living in Bozkurt-Turkey. The Hydroelectric power station was built in 2017.It's the biggest plant in the area.This Hydroelectric power station was built in the stream bed.The streambed width was almost 400 meters before the Hydroelectric power station was built.The streambed width was narrowing when this Hydroelectric power station was built.20 meters width isn't enough for the rainy days. This flood width was almost 150 meters.For this reason, ıt was a mistake to build a home in the streambed.

That floods won't be last.Turkey has 246 hydroelectric power stations in the northern.Many people live near this area (streambed).They are at the risk because of floods.Last month in Germany, this month in Turkey. Next month?
