At least six people were killed in flash floods in the southwestern Aude district of France after several months' worth of rain fell in just a few hours overnight, the local government prefect said on Monday.
Six helicopters were scrambled to help rescue people from the roofs of their homes, but bad weather was making operations difficult, the prefect of Aude, Alain Thirion, told BFM TV. Around 250 firemen and 100 police were involved in the effort.
"We have people stranded on rooftops. We're going to have to use aircraft to evacuate them because we cannot reach them by boat gave the force of the water. It's too dangerous," he said.
