    GalleryGallery: Members of the Bosnian Army rescue people from their flooded homes, in the Bosnian town of Maglaj, 150 kms north of Sarajevo, Friday May 16, 2014. Two people drowned in Serbia and the country declared a national emergency Thursday as rain-swollen rivers across the Balkans flooded roads and bridges, shut down schools and cut off power. Hundreds of people had to be evacuated. In Serbia and neighboring Bosnia, meteorologists said the rainfall was the most since measuring started 120 years ago. Belgrade authorities say the average rainfall of a two-month period hit the city in just 40 hours.

    GalleryGallery: An Indian election official opens a ballot box to count votes at a polling station in Hyderabad, India, Friday, May 16, 2014. India's Election Commission said that early results show that the opposition Bharatiya Janata Party has won enough seats to form a government on its own. The party now has a commanding lead in 272 seats, the majority needed to move forward without forming a coalition with smaller parties in the country's lower house of Parliament.

    GalleryGallery: Opposition leader and India's next prime minister Narendra Modi listens to his 90-year-old mother Hiraben during a visit to seek her blessings after preliminary results showed his party winning by a landslide, in Gandhinagar, in the western Indian state of Gujarat, Friday, May 16, 2014. The 63-year-old Modi is widely seen as the darling of India's corporate world and a decisive, 21st-century administrator expected to revive job creation and economic growth. The top official in Gujarat state for a decade, Modi often contrasted his humble roots with the posh background of his main rival, 43-year-old Rahul Gandhi, heir to India's most powerful political dynasty.
