Barjele încărcate cu cereale, blocate în mijlocul Dunării din cauza nivelului scăzut

The Danube River is experiencing its lowest water levels in 30 years, severely impacting port activities and cargo transport. Recent measurements show a historic low of 1,650 m³/s at the Romanian border, with some areas revealing sand dunes instead of water. Although there has been a slight increase to 1,700 m³/s, levels remain significantly below the July average. Farmers are also affected due to irrigation issues, and the tourist port in Corabia is closed. Authorities emphasize the importance of responsible water use during this period.
