The Emilia Romagna region in Italy is grappling with the aftermath of severe flooding caused by Cyclone Boris.

The town of Traversara in Bagnacavallo, Ravenna, was particularly hard-hit when the Lamone River breached its banks, leading to widespread inundation.

The local hospital in Lugo had to be evacuated as floodwaters reached the area.

While the search for missing persons continues, the number of those unaccounted for has thankfully decreased.

Amidst the chaos, political tensions have risen, with debates over the allocation of funds for disaster relief.

The government faces criticism for its approach, as opposition parties demand immediate resources to aid affected regions.
