Neighbouring Village: River and Romanian Police

neighbouring village: Romanian police halted shipping at midday for an undetermined period along a 900-kilometre stretch of the Danube River, which crosses Romania, according to Hamilton Spectator. Croatian and Serbian authorities also stopped river traffic on the Danube. The deep freeze has caused at least 61 deaths since it began last week, a third of those in Poland. In Serbia, shipping was banned on the River Sava because of icy conditions, which claimed another two lives in southern Serbia. Serbian state TV reported the two victims, discovered by a man delivering bread from a neighbouring village, were extremely poor. Authorities said an 88-year-old man and his son, 64, died from freezing temperatures in the village of Duga Poljana, in the south, which has been hardest-hit by the recent cold spell.
