El verano bajo mínimos de los grandes ríos europeos obliga a alterar las rutas de los cruceros

An extreme summer drought has driven water levels in major European rivers—specifically the Danube, Rhine, and Loire—to historic lows, forcing the alteration of river cruise routes. This disruption impacts a major economic engine for the tourism sector in the affected countries.

Beyond economic and navigational consequences, the severe drop in water levels has also affected local ecosystems. Additionally, the receding water has exposed a sunken Nazi vessel dating back to World War II.
