Enipeas River overflows: 112 issues evacuation order for settlement near Farsala – Four areas on alert

Authorities in the Trikala Regional Unit are also on high alert, as the recent heavy rainfall has significantly increased the water levels of the area’s rivers

Newsroom December 6 08:35

The residents of the settlement of Yperia, in the regional community of Larissa, received an emergency alert from the 112 warning system early on Saturday morning, urging them to move toward the town of Farsala due to the overflow of the Enipeas River. Local authorities are increasingly concerned as the river’s water levels continue to rise dangerously, posing a threat to additional areas.

At the same time, residents in the areas of Lefki, Orfana, Ampelonas, Fyllo and Ilia have also received warning messages from 112. They are advised to remain vigilant and follow the authorities’ instructions regarding safe movement.

Authorities in the Regional Unit of Trikala are similarly on high alert, as days of heavy rainfall have caused river levels to swell. On Friday night, the Pinios River overflowed into its wider riverbed near Valomandri, raising further concern over the continuing severe weather.
