A dam has broken on the flood-swollen River Elbe in eastern Germany, forcing thousands of people to leave their homes around the city of Magdeburg.

Well, This can happen anywhere, but it's still a disaster either the repair costs for poor families who had to flee their homes. I remember once my house was flooded, and it was a disaster, we had to pull a lot of furniture and important objects such as photos, cd's, etc. But well, things happen and we have to learn to live with it.
