Twenty-two people rescue from flooded parking lot

Rescue crews pulled out 22 people out of a flooded private parking lot in the region of Iraklio, northern Crete, on Wednesday night, after a local river burst its banks following torrential rains in the wider area. 

Rescuers used a dinghy and a tractor to collect those trapped in the parking lot located in Treis Vayies, near Giofyros river.

The rains also cause images to local houses and fields.
