More than 110 dead as once-in-a-century flooding hits Germany and Belgium

Berlin, July 16 (RHC)-- Over 110 people have died following massive floods in west Germany and Belgium — triggered by some of the heaviest rainfall many European countries have seen in at least a century.   Most of the fatalities are in Germany, where some 1,300 people have also been reported missing. 

Several villages in Germany are almost completely destroyed after torrents of water, often carrying trees and other debris, raged through them. Heavy floods were also reported in Luxembourg and the Netherlands, where thousands of people in the southern province of Limburg were told to evacuate Thursday.
