A series of ‘apocalyptic’ floods have devastated a number of cities in Northern Italy, with at least 14 dead and thousands forced to flee their homes after 21 river banks burst in the Emilia-Romagna province.

Entire towns have been submerged, with similar floods and landslides causing chaos in Italy, Croatia, Bosnia and Slovenia as climate-related catastrophes remain on the rise in the South of Europe.

Now-viral videos on TikTok, Twitter and other social media platforms show pedestrians see the ground collapse before their very eyes as they join thousands of citizens attempt to secure safe surroundings. The province’s Civil Protection Department has set up a fundraising campaign to support communities affecting by the flooding.

Multiple news outlets, including ‘The Guardian’ have been calling the disaster ‘Italy’s worst flooding for 100 years’.
