Civil Protection has issued warnings for flood-risk areas, particularly in the Mondego region, following the collapse of part of the A1 motorway pavement near the Mondego River. The incident occurred after a dyke failure, leading to the closure of the motorway in both directions. Authorities are monitoring the situation closely as additional subsidence has been reported due to landslides.
