Russia and Kazakhstan have suffered the worst flooding in at least 70 years due to snowmelt and dam breaches.

Russia's Ural Mountains, Siberia, and regions of Kazakhstan close to the Ural and Tobol rivers were affected by the deluge.

Aiman Kulumbetova, a resident of the village of Taitobe, not far from Astana, the capital of Kazakhstan, told CGTN that people and houses in the village were safe for the time being as the government took urgent measures to place sandbags and build dams.

"If things escalate, we will be put in schools."
