ArmInfo. Due to the penetration of an active Black Sea cyclone on June 8, periodic rains and thunderstorms are expected in most regions of Armenia, and in some areas, precipitation will be intense. This was reported by the press service of the Ministry of Environment.
The department also warned that the water level in the Debed, Aghstev rivers and the southern shore of Lake Sevan is expected to rise.
In late May, torrential rains hit the north of Armenia, which led to the overflow of the Debed and Aghstev rivers and flooding in the Lori and Tavush regions. As a result, many roads and bridges were destroyed, houses were flooded, and many problems arose in terms of infrastructure. In particular, we are talking about communications, power lines, gas pipelines, drinking water and irrigation systems. More than 400 people were evacuated, the death toll reached 4.
