Low water levels in the Danube have uncovered Nazi ships from World War II. Unusual discovery in Serbia!
Nazi ships sank in the territory of present-day Serbia in 1944. On board the machines were dangerous explosives.
Europe is facing one of the worst droughts in history. Record-breaking temperatures have been recorded in many countries for several months, also contributing to catastrophic wildfires. Experts are clear — these are the effects of climate change. As a result, many rivers on the continent are drying up, and individual regions have had trouble accessing drinking water.
Water levels in the Danube River have exposed Nazi wrecks
In an archaeological context, lowering water levels sometimes provide an opportunity for new discoveries. This was the case in Italy, where the river exposed the ancient Nero Bridge on the Tiber River, and in Iraq, among others. There, in turn, the ruins of a city from the time of the Mitanni Empire were discovered.
