Urgent Situations - The flood situation in Regensburg remains unresolved.

Emergency crews escorted residents from around 30 homes near a river on Tuesday night due to the escalating instability of the ground caused by the elevated water table. On Wednesday, the securing of the protective walls on Werftstraße will be a primary concern for disaster management officials, who acknowledged, "this is where we're most vulnerable."

In Passau, water levels in the Danube and Inn rivers were gradually decreasing on Wednesday. The HND reported that the Danube's water levels ranged from about 8.50 to above nine meters in the morning, while normal water levels merely reach six meters. Consequently, the highest alert level 4 persisted. The Inn's water level dropped from roughly 7 meters to about 5.80 meters.
