Severe flooding in southern Russia has killed at least 87 people, with another 13,000 affected in the Krasnodar region, in the worst natural disaster in the area in a decade.
Black Sea resort town of Gelendzhik received five months' worth of rain in 24 hours, the regional administration said. Many of the dead were elderly people who had been sleeping and drowned.
Most of the victims died in or around Krymsk, a town about 300km northwest of Sochi, the Black Sea resort where Russia will host the 2014 Winter Olympics.
The rising waters came when a torrential downpour during the night brought a month's worth of rain to the Krasnodar region in just a few hours.
Authorities said they had to switch off power in the worst-affected areas, the district of Krymsk, to avoid more deaths after reports of residents in Gelendzhik dying of electrocution.
Novorossiysk, the nation's largest Black Sea port, which had received two months worth of rain in a 24-hour period, has suspended exports of grain, metals and crude oil.
