Avenida dos Aviadores in Alcácer do Sal, in the Setúbal district, was flooded again due to the rise of the Sado River, which remains “at a very high level”. “The river rose this morning as we expected and, as warned by the Portuguese Environment Agency (APA), it is not receding; it remains at a very high level,” Tiago Bugio, the sub-regional commander for Emergency and Civil Protection of the Alentejo Litoral, told the Lusa news agency.
