Massive flooding in Central Europe killed five more people in Poland and one in Czech Republic, officials said Monday.
The number of flood victims in southwestern Poland rose from one to five after the body of a surgeon returning from hospital duty was found in the town of Nysa, firefighters said.
Earlier, the bodies of two women and two men were found separately in the towns of Bielsko-Biala and Ladek-Zdroj and in two villages.
Water has subsided in those areas since then, but experts are warning of a flood threat in Opole, a city of some 130,000 residents, where the Oder River has reached high levels. Concerns have also been raised in the city of Wroclaw, home to some 640,000 residents.
Prime Minister Donald Tusk has convened an emergency government session to consider special measures to speed up financial and other support to flooding victims.
