The count of individuals yet to be found has decreased.
In Bavaria, there are fewer individuals reported missing from the flood than earlier in the week. As per a representative from the Bavarian Interior Ministry, there were three people still unaccounted for by early Thursday morning, as reported by the German Press Agency. This is a reduction from the fluctuating numbers of five to seven reported missing on Tuesday. The spokesperson noted that the cases are "tendentially" decreasing.
Among those still missing is a 22-year-old firefighter, who currently has search efforts underway in Swabia. He went missing after capsizing a DLRG rescue boat in Offingen on Sunday.
However, the number of missing people may change again - either if those who were reported missing turn up at the authorities or if additional missing person cases emerge in the regions in eastern Bavaria still reeling from the flood.
