Emilia-Romagna has been severely impacted by devastating floods, resulting in one fatality and thousands displaced.
The region, including Bologna, Modena, and Reggio Emilia, is grappling with the aftermath of torrential rains that have caused widespread damage.
In Bologna, volunteers are tirelessly working to clear mud and debris from the streets, while emergency services have been conducting numerous rescues, including a dramatic helicopter evacuation of a three-month-old baby.
The floods have also led to significant infrastructure damage, with many roads closed due to landslides and flooding.
Authorities are urging residents to avoid unnecessary travel, especially in hilly areas where conditions remain precarious.
The government is coordinating with local and national agencies to manage the crisis and begin recovery efforts.
