Flooding causes extensive damage across Crete


Flooding in the popular Greece resort island of Crete has left roads in desperate condition.

In video filmed earlier this week, huge chunks of concrete are missing from the road, leaving cliff-like edges leading into the rushing rivers.

This aftermath footage was captured in the town of Zoniana after two storms that hit the Greek island made February the wettest month on record in the country.

At least one casualty has been reported as a result of the flooding on February 24 and four more a week before that.

The island is now trying to start the long recovery in fixing its destroyed bridges and roads.
