Torrential rain has caused flooding in a large part of eastern Slovakian village of Vlkova, some two months after a previous flood hit the same region.

Flood inundated at least some 30 houses in the village late on Friday, village mayor Peter Bendik said, adding that the village had been recovering from floods in May.

The fresh flooding also damaged roads and utility poles and triggered landslides in the village, but fortunately caused no casualties, Bendik said.

Heavy rains and floods this week devastated part of the Northern Slovakia as well.
