In Orenburg, the water level in the Ural River reached a critical level of 942 centimeters, exceeding the previous maximum by as much as 11 centimeters. City authorities are closely monitoring the situation, continuously monitoring flooded areas. The head of Orenburg, Sergei Salmin, personally inspected the areas most vulnerable to the growing flood disaster, and his first deputy, Alexey Kudinov, is coordinating actions to prevent the critical consequences of the flood. At the moment, there have been no direct orders to begin evacuation, but Governor Denis Pasler has already called on residents to be prepared to leave their homes if the situation worsens.

The water level continues to rise, which raises concerns not only for residential areas, but also for important infrastructure facilities, such as the Voronezh radar station, which is located in Orsk. While no official statements have been made regarding the potential impact on the missile warning system, the situation remains tense.

Given the continued rise of water, there is a risk that its level will approach 960 centimeters over the next few hours.
