Even on Wednesday, there was still no all-clear along the Leitha in the district of Neusiedl am See. The fire departments are still working hard to secure the dams.

The situation remains tense in Bruckneudorf, Potzneusiedl, Gattendorf, Pama, Zurndorf, Deutsch Jahrndorf and Nickelsdorf. There is still a risk of flooding along the course of the Leitha river in the district of Neusiedl am See due to softened dams and blockages. The fire departments are doing their utmost to prevent this and are joining forces to fill thousands of sandbags. The disaster relief service also made its way to Nickelsdorf on Wednesday afternoon.

Mayor Gerhard Zapfl is grateful for the support of all the emergency services. "The solidarity is great. We would like to say a big thank you to all the helpers," said Zapfl.

At the same time, the authorities once again asked the population to avoid the river areas. The bridge between Potzneusiedl and Deutsch Haslau in Lower Austria is closed due to the flooding, as is a bridge in the Zurndorf area. The situation is not expected to ease until the weekend. The situation looks better in the districts of Mattersburg and Eisenstadt-Umgebung. The authorities were able to give the all-clear here.
