Almost 1,500 people evacuated in Paris as waters in the River Seine rise dramatically




Almost 1,500 people have been displaced in the Paris region, as the waters in the River Seine have risen dramatically over the last 48 hours.

Fears of widespread flooding prompted authorities to move people into shelters, after water levels in the river rose again today.

Flood risk is due to peak on Sunday night/Monday morning, as water levels are now close to those that caused massive flooding back in 2016.
