(ANSA) - BELGRADE, SEP 7 - Residents in several municipalities of Karditsa, a regional unit in central Greece, had to climb on their roofs on Thursday morning to avoid rising waters caused by torrential rains that hit the area and nearby regions in the previous 48 hours, according to the daily Kathimerini. The municipalities of Palamas and Metamorfosi were particularly hard hit by flooding, with videos and images from the area showing houses submerged in muddy waters. According to the fire department, record rainfall caused at least four deaths near the central city of Volos and in Karditsa, further west.
