Russian authorities are helping people displaced by floods as the water level rises in the Ural River. Thousands of people have been evacuated in the Orenburg region near the Russian-Kazakh border after a dam collapsed on Saturday. The Russian government has declared a federal emergency. Despite state television often showing President Vladimir Putin meeting officials and traveling across the country, the Kremlin said he had no plans to visit the affected area yet. The water level in the city of Orenburg exceeded 10 meters (almost 33 feet) on Wednesday, according to the regional governor cited by state news agency Ria Novosti. Images from Russian media showed roads submerged in water, flooded fields, and partially submerged houses.

Las autoridades rusas trataban el miércoles de ayudar a personas desplazadas por las inundaciones mientras subía el nivel del agua en el río Ural, según dijeron funcionarios el miércoles. Las inundaciones en la región de Oremburgo, cerca de la frontera rusa con Kazajistán, obligaron a evacuar a miles de personas tras el derrumbe de una represa el sábado. El gobierno ruso ha declarado una emergencia federal.

Cientos de personas se reunieron ante un edificio oficial en Orsk el lunes y corearon “¡Putin, ayúdanos!” y “¡Vergüenza!”, según videos publicados en medios rusos. Otros videos en redes sociales mostraban a rusos enojados que se negaban a abandonar las zonas cerca de sus hogares porque decían que había personas utilizando botes para saquear las casas abandonadas.
