Massive floods pounded Central Europe on Monday, killing four more people in Poland and one in the Czech Republic.
Following an emergency government meeting, Prime Minister Donald Tusk announced a state of natural disaster in the flooded areas to facilitate evacuation and rescue operations, as well as expedite financial support for the victims. Tusk told a news conference the Finance Ministry has so far earmarked 1 billion zlotys ($258,000) for immediate payouts.
