Heavy rains have caused catastrophic conditions in major parts of Slovenia, and lives are also at risk. Residents are assisted by all available forces. The most important thing is that people take care of their own safety, follow the instructions of the competent services and stay in a safe place.
If you want to help
If you would like to help people affected by floods in Slovenia you can do so by donating to Slovenian charities that have already started raising funds. It is recommended that all financial aid is collected through humanitarian organizations, as they are best equipped to distribute the funds to those in need.
If an individual receives assistance from organizations that have the status of a humanitarian organization operating in the public interest in the fields of social or healthcare services, and from organizations that have the status of a disability organization operating in the public interest in the field of disability care, this aid is exempt from income tax payment.

We have requested assistance through the NATO Disaster Response Mechanism (Euro-Atlantic Disaster Response Coordination Centre – EADRCC) in the form of:
- 5 heavy military helicopters with a carrying capacity of at least 5 tonnes for transport,
- 200 soldiers to carry out protection, rescue and assistance tasks; and

The Republic of Croatia has already provided the assistance with a military helicopter to help close and secure a broken levee on the Mura River and to help reinforce its embankments. Help from other countries is still expected to arrive. The assistance is being coordinated through the Administration of the Republic of Slovenia for Civil Protection and Disaster Relief, which is in constant contact with the two aid coordination centres in Brussels.
