"Norway Contemplates Dam Demolition Amid Devastating Scandinavian Floods"

Heavy rain in southern Norway has caused landslides and flooding, prompting authorities to consider blowing up part of a dam to prevent downstream communities from being deluged. The Glåma River, Norway's longest and most voluminous river, is dammed at the Braskereidfoss hydroelectric power plant, which is currently underwater and out of operation. Evacuations have taken place, roads have been closed, and a woman in her 70s died after falling into a stream. The situation is described as a crisis of national dimensions, with more heavy rain expected.
