KISELJAK, Bosnia and Herzegovina: Heavy rains that flooded towns and touched off landslides left at least 16 people dead in Bosnia on Friday, authorities said.
Jablanica, some 70-kms southwest of Sarajevo, appeared to bear the brunt of the downpours, which cut it off from the outside world.
Photos on local media from the Jablanica region showed mudslides coming up to roofs of houses and a mosque with only its minaret sticking out.
A photo, published by regional railways authorities, showed a 200-metre section of a railway track suspended in mid-air after water triggered a massive landslide.
“For now, the bodies of 14 people have been found” in the region of Jablanica, regional government spokesman Darko Jukan told AFP, adding that the toll was likely to rise.
