Kuće su zaglibljene u blatu, dok voda nosi stoku i vozila.

Poplavnim vodama i klizištima koje su one izazvale zahvaćeno je šezdeset opština. Najteže su pogođeni gradovi Doboj, Maglaj i Odžak, te okolna sela i usevi. Spasioci i volonteri već pomažu da se raščiste ruševine, ukloni mrtva stoka i popravi infrastruktura.
Sređivanje i obnova će verovatno potrajati godinama, što će rezultirati poteškoćama u održavanju državnog budžeta.
