Georgia: strong hailstorm caused huge damage to Kakheti
Tonight, a strong hailstorm has damaged orchards in Eastern Georgia, in ten villages of the Kakheti Region.
The greatest damage was caused to the farm in Bakurtsikhe village, Gurdzhaan District, and to farmland and property of the residents of the Telavi and Kvareli Districts, as reported by the "Rustavi-2" TV Company.
Besides, as reported by the IA "News-Georgia", as a result of downpours, which lasted for three days, some rivers overflowed the banks. The flooding destroyed the winter, which can lead to loss of cattle and famine.
