Hungary will close its only nuclear power plant. This is the first time. The River Danube is very low. The plant needs river water. Now it cannot get the water. Romania has the same problem.
There was little rain this spring. Then the weather was very hot. The river is the lowest for 30 years.
Hungary may not have enough electricity. Hungary asks people to use less power in the evening. Boats cannot move in Bulgaria. The low water showed an old ship.
