Neretva Valley | Destroyed railway line

WI_bh506.jpg

Heavy rainfall in the night of 3-4 October 2024 triggered floods and debris flows in the central and S parts of Bosnia and Herzegovina, resulting in more than 20 fatalities and affecting infrastructure and buildings. This scene shows an eroded dam of the railway line Sarajevo-Mostar, on the right bank of the Neretva river S of Jablanica. According to pre-event imagery, there had been a large culvert rather than a real bridge. Only the rails have remained in place, with some rocks and woody debris on top.
