Takeshi Muronaga, Director of the River Conservation Planning Office, River Environment Division, Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism, explained the current river conditions and the danger of sediment-related disasters at a joint press conference with the Japan Meteorological Agency from 10 am.
Among them, "The Gonokawa River that flows through Hiroshima and Shimane Prefecture, the Ota River that flows through Hiroshima Prefecture, and the Kuma River in Kumamoto Prefecture have continued to have high water levels due to the rain so far. I have sex, and I would like to ask for more caution. "
He also said, "The risk of sediment-related disasters is increasing due to accumulated rain. Please check the hazard map and pay attention to information on evacuation."
On top of that, "Not only large rivers, but also small and medium-sized rivers have already been flooded and damaged, and the water level is high. Do not go to see the rivers, take actions to save lives. I want it. "
