Many villages in the region of Orenburg are now completely flooded
Russia has said the situation is "very, very tense" as floodwaters continue to rise in the city of Orenburg and surrounding areas.

"Large amounts of water are coming to new regions," Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov warned on Wednesday.

The flooding is being described as the worst to hit the region in 80 years.

Water levels in the Ural river near Orenburg rose to over 10m (33ft) on Wednesday, Ria news agency reported, well above its bursting point.

Thousands of people have had to flee their homes in southern Russia, while officials in neighbouring Kazakhstan say the number of evacuees there has risen to 97,000.

Last week, several rivers - including the Ural, Europe's third-largest - burst their banks after rapidly melting snow and ice caused them to swell.

The Ural flows through the city of Orsk into Kazakhstan and then into the Caspian Sea. Floodwaters are threatening several areas of northern Kazakhstan and many dams and reservoirs are filled to capacity.

Entire villages have been engulfed by overflowing rivers. As many as 2,000 homes have been flooded in Orenburg, where water levels have surpassed the critical level of 9.3m and still rising. The city has a population of 550,000 and lies about 1,500km (930 miles) south-east of Moscow.
