The death toll in Belgium has risen to at least 11, according to Belgian reports. Continuing rain is forecast for parts of the west, where water levels in the Rhine river and its tributaries are rising dangerously. Authorities in the Rhine-Sieg county in North Rhine-Westphalia ordered the evacuation of several villages below the Steinbach reservoir amid fears a dam could break. Malu Dreyer, the governor of Rhineland-Palatinate state, told the regional parliament: “There are people dead, there are people missing, there are many who are still in danger … We have never seen such a disaster. It’s really devastating.” A flooded street in the town of Bad Neuenahr-Ahrweiler, western Germany, on Thursday. Photograph: Christof Stache/AFP/Getty Images
