Continuous rain - Bundeswehr equipment could provide support during floods
Equipment from the German Armed Forces and Federal Police could also be used in the flood situation in Lower Saxony. This could involve transport helicopters, for example, which could be deployed if necessary, as state fire director Dieter Rohrberg said in Hanover on Friday. According to him, corresponding operational arrangements are underway. So far, this assistance has not had to be used. Lower Saxony is already receiving help from other federal states, said Rohrberg.

The weather in Lower Saxony has been inconsistent, with periods of continuous rain contributing to the flood situation. The federal armed forces and Federal Police equipment could become crucial in managing this situation, as suggested by state fire director Dieter Rohrberg in Hanover. Lower Saxony is currently receiving aid from other federal states, but the need for additional assistance from the armed forces and police remains a possibility. If required, transport helicopters from the Bundeswehr could be deployed to assist in rescue operations or deliver supplies. Regardless, Dieter Rohrberg stressed that appropriate operational plans are being established in preparation for potential support. The Federal Police has also been involved in monitoring the situation, working alongside various emergency services to ensure public safety in the region.
