Digital Journal reported yesterday on the floods in Russia, which at that stage had taken 87 lives.
Russia's almost tsunami-like floods have taken the lives of 150 people and devastated the area. The floods are the worst in nearly a century and the death toll continues to climb.
Officials calculated that up to 12,000 people have been affected by this disaster and a state of emergency has been declared in Gelendzhik, Krymsk and Novorossiysk.
So far, 139 bodies have been recovered in Krymsk, a further nine in Gelendzhik and two in Novorossiysk. Over 130 people are currently in hospital with injuries caused by the flooding, including 14 children.
