Approx. 93 mm of rain were recorded, causing flash floods. As of 8 August, national authorities reported that 21 people dead, 70 injured and over 1 000 evacuated throughout the city. The worst affected areas are the villages of Stajkovci, Haracinovo, suburbs Butel, Cento and upper Lisice, as well as the ring road near Stajkovci. On 8 August, the EU Civil Protection Mechanism has been activated. A Technical Expert and an EU civil protection expert team are being deployed to Skopje, to analyse the situation with regards to the water and sewage system. They will prepare recommendations for the local authorities and assess further needs of assistance in coordination with the national authorities and humanitarian partners. The present map shows the flood delineation in the area of Skopje. The thematic layer has been derived from post-event satellite image using a semi-automatic approach. The estimated geometric accuracy is 5 m or better, from native positional accuracy of the background satellite image. Products elaborated in this Copernicus EMS Rapid Mapping activity are realized to the best of our ability, within a very short time frame, optimising the available data and information. All geographic information has limitations due to scale, resolution, date and interpretation of the original sources. The map and the information content are derived from satellite data without in situ validation. No liability concerning the contents or the use thereof is assumed by the producer and by the European Union. Please be aware that the thematic accuracy might be lower in urban and forested areas due to inherent limitations of the SAR analysis technique Map produced by SIRS released by e-GEOS (ODO).
