Severe thunderstorms hit France – 20 minutes
A 600 m2 roof of a residential building flew off this Saturday in Alfortville. The town of Val-de-Marne was particularly affected during the storms that hit Ile-de-France at the end of the afternoon. Two people were slightly injured, according to Paris firefighters, when the roof of this five-story building was washed away.
This Sunday morning, the mayor PS Luc Carvounas announced to AFP that he had formulated a request for “a decree of natural disaster”. “We have two sports halls which are impassable, and especially citizens who have been inundated. What happened yesterday is what we experienced in 1999, in part of the city, ”said the city councilor to Franceinfo.
