In the city of Karabash in the Chelyabinsk region, the dam of the Kialim reservoir broke. This is reported by the press service The Ministry of Emergency Situations of Russia in the region.
The destruction of the dam occurred due to a sharp rise in the water level due to prolonged downpours.

According to the operational headquarters of the Karabash city district, residents of settlements located in the flood zone — Kiolim, Mukhametovo, Karasaevo, Baydashevo, Saktaevo — need to be ready to evacuate and collect essential items and documents.
