Low Danube Uncovers World War II Shipwrecks
The low water levels of the Danube River, caused by recent droughts, have revealed World War II shipwrecks in Serbia and Hungary. Explosive-laden Nazi ships near Prahovo and vessels from before 1950 near Mohacs are now visible due to the severe heat waves and persistent droughts.

The low water levels of the Danube River, spurred by recent droughts, have unveiled forgotten World War II shipwrecks in Serbia and Hungary.
The wrecks of explosive-laden Nazi ships have emerged near Serbia's Prahovo river port after a sharp drop in the river's water levels due to droughts in July and August.
Similarly, four pre-1950 vessels were exposed in Hungary's Danube-Drava National Park near Mohacs, where the water level stood at just 1.5 meters.
