Heavy rainfall this week across the Balkans has caused rivers to rise dangerously in Serbia, Bosnia and Montenegro, flooding some areas and threatening flood defenses elsewhere.
MORE: Floods were also reported in Kosovo and Albania, where high water soaked agricultural land, blocked roads and caused temporary power outages.
In northern Kosovo, authorities said parts of the town of Mitrovica have been flooded, forcing people to evacuate their homes.
Footage captured by The Associated Press showed the extent of the flooding, with emergency services wading through floodwater.
