# The second longest river in Europe, the Danube, is running so low that dozens of Nazi battleships from World War Two are emerging from the riverbed. The river runs through several countries from West to East, including Germany, Slovakia, Serbia, Romania, Bulgaria, Moldova, and Ukraine. Rusty hulls are now visible in the middle of the river separating Serbia and Romania, near the port of Prahovo. The ships, some still laden with weapons, belonged to Nazi Germany’s Black Sea fleet that they deliberately sank as they retreated from Romania towards the end of the war.
