A republican-level emergency regime has been introduced in Buryatia due to the difficult flood situation in three districts — Tarbagataisky, Zaigraevsky, Mukhorshibirsky.
In the Tarbagatai region, more than 370 household plots and 10 houses were flooded. People lost their crops and livestock.
In the Zaigraevsky district, 30 plots and three private houses were flooded. 10 people, including two children, were evacuated and placed in a temporary temporary detention facility. The railway infrastructure was under threat, but the ESR anti-scour train carried out all the necessary measures to strengthen the slopes and embankments.
In the Mukhorshibirsky district, a dam overflowed on the Khonkholoi reservoir. Due to the erosion of sections of the federal road R-258 «Baikal», traffic from the 540th to the 590th kilometer was temporarily stopped for a day.
