Budapest, Hungary is facing historic flooding of the Danube River that is driving thousands from their homes after heavy rain across central Europe.

The river is expected to crest at 29.5, just a foot below the river’s flood fences at 30.5 feet. The previous record high was 28 feet in 2006. At least 1,200 people from 28 towns have been forced to leave their homes.

Over six million sandbags have been used throughout the city to strengthen the river defenses.

Across central Europe, at least 15 people are confirmed dead because of the flooding.

The city of Magdeburg, Germany is facing evacuations after the River Elbe rose to destroy a dam. Water levels in the River Elbe are almost four times higher than normal.

Analysts say the cleanup from the flooding will go into the billions of euros.
