If the rain stops, we predict the underpass will already dry at the latest around 7 PM

Those five tactical vehicles consisted of two mobile pumps with a capacity of 750 gallons per minute, two quick response units with a capacity of 1,500 liters per minute and one submersible pump unit with a capacity of 3,500 liters per minute
"We also send 30 personnel to the location," he expressed.
