Czechia requests 15,000 dehumidifiers from EU

Czechia has requested 15,000 dehumidifiers through the European civil assistance system, according to Deputy Prime Minister Vít Rakušan (Mayors and Independents Party). The country has already begun distributing 8,000 units from its own reserves to flood-affected regions. Dehumidifiers and large-capacity pumps are in high demand in these areas. Rakušan noted that government officials visited the Moravia-Silesia region, including Opava and Ostrava, to coordinate with local authorities. Ensuring access to drinking water, mobile signals, and electricity is the immediate priority.
