Vladimir Putin faces furious backlash as flood-hit Russians turn anger towards officials

Russians left homeless following floods have directed their frustration towards President Vladimir Putin and local officials.

Over a hundred individuals sought aid from Putin on Monday after the city or Orsk was struck with the worst flooding ever recorded, expressing their discontent with local authorities whom they accuse of insufficient assistance.

An emergency was declared in the Orenburg region near Kazakhstan, as the Ural River, Europe’s third longest, surged several meters in mere hours last Friday, breaching a dam embankment in the city.

Large portions of Orsk, situated 1,800 km east of Moscow with a population of 230,000, now lie submerged.

Protesters gathered outside the local administration building in Orsk, chanting slogans like "shame on you" and "Putin help," captured in video footage circulated by local media.

Many vented their anger at Mayor Vasily Kozupitsa and expressed dissatisfaction with the compensation offered for their destroyed or severely damaged properties. Some also lamented the failure of the dam embankment constructed in 2010 to protect their city.

Orenburg Governor Denis Pasler addressed a group of residents in Orsk, urging unity and cautioning against blame games.

However, regional prosecutors warned against participating in mass gatherings, as it "has not been coordinated with the authorities in accordance with the procedure established by law".

Why post crap about a dead man,eh?

“Russia is inferior to America.”

I’d venture to say...a flood is a flood no matter where you’re standing.
