Danube River's Low Water Levels Reveal World War II Shipwrecks Amid Heatwave
The Danube River, which flows through 10 European nations, is experiencing record low water levels due to an ongoing drought and heatwave. This has led to the emergence of World War II German battleships, which were scuttled by Nazi Germany's Black Sea fleet in 1944 to slow the Soviet advance. The ships, some still carrying explosives, are now visible near the Serbian port of Prahovo. The low water levels are also affecting power plants, pushing them to the brink of shutdown, and prompting governments in Central and Eastern Europe to take measures to conserve electricity. The situation is exacerbated by the unusually hot weather, which experts link to global warming.
