In April 2024, extensive flooding impacted several regions of Kazakhstan and Russia, specifically in the Ural Mountains and Siberia.[2] Snow melt caused freshets[1] resulting in the Orsk Dam collapsing.[3] In Russia, a federal emergency was declared.[4] Hundreds of thousands of people were evacuated[5][6] including 16,000 people in Kazakhstan.[7] At least eight people died and hundreds of livestock have drowned in floods that are described to have inundated an area the size of western Europe.[1]
On 3 May, the Grand Prix of Kazakhstan was "postponed until later in the season" due to the on-going flooding.[8]
