Death toll rises as rivers spill banks amid Europe floods

More rivers in central Europe have spilled their banks in flooding that has killed at least 10 people from Poland to Romania and left many towns submerged or hit by gushing, debris-filled waters after days of heavy rainfalls.

Border areas between the Czech Republic and Poland were hit hard over the weekend. Some bridges collapsed and homes were destroyed, while villages and towns in eastern Romania were submerged.

Poland's government is due to meet this morning to call a state of disaster.
