Horse stranded on rooftop in flooded Brazil | VOA News

A horse was found stranded on a rooftop in a flooded area in Brazil's Rio Grande do Sul on May 8, 2024. Aerial views showed the brown horse standing on top of a building that had been submerged in floodwater.
The death toll from heavy rains that swamped Rio Grande do Sul in recent days has climbed to 100, local civil defense said on Wednesday, as Brazil's southernmost state braces for more rain in the coming hours and days.
The storms have caused floods that destroyed bridges and buildings, turning streets into rivers and leaving more than 163,000 displaced in Rio Grande do Sul, which borders Uruguay and Argentina.
Brazil's national center for natural disasters said on Tuesday that the southern area of the state was under "high risk" of more floods on Wednesday, with rainfall expected to restart. Although it is not expected to be significant in volume, water levels are already high in many places and the soil saturated. #Brazil #Flood #reels #videography #voanews
