Hungary sees flood peak pass


BUDAPEST, Sept. 24 (Xinhua) -- The peak of a flood that started to hit Hungary last week is receding on Tuesday, two days earlier than expected, Prime Minister Viktor Orban said.

The flood crest would pass Mohacs in the south and leave the country during the day, earlier than the previously forecast departure on Thursday, Orban said at a press conference.
