Bosnia & Herzegovina is again faced with the catastrophy. Heavy rain has caused the widespread flooding forcing authorities to declare a state of emergency and evacuate thousands of people from their homes.

A state of emergency has been declared in several areas of Bosnia and Herzegovina after five days of torrential rain caused what has been decribed as the worst flooding in a century.

The Bosian Army is using boats to deliver food and drinking water to houses cut-off, due to roads and bridges being submerged by water.

The torrents may have also swept loose a perhaps even bigger concern: land mines planted during the Bosnian war.

The weather forecast is not good for the next three to four days. More rain expected!!!!

Again we pray for all people in BIH especially those whose homes are gone

With the support of HK Norway and its regions and locals, STBIH launched solidarity action with its members in the flooded area in BIH. In this action each of STBIH member who has been directly stricken with the floods or landslide will receive 100 KM as the first aid. Today STBIH visited its members in Doboj and Maglaj. Besides financial support STBIH members got medices, cleaning material, antiseptic material, rober gloves and boots etc. This action continues. tomorrow we are in Zenica and next week in Prijedor, banja Luka, Sanski Most, Tuzla, Bijeljina…

 

Besides financial support workers were provided with robber boots, gloves, mask, but aslo diapers and medicines as tthey asked for. 

Help will come to all our members. please all the shop stewards to organize and costly information about people who need help.
Thank HK Norge !!!

Tusen takk till HK
