Neuquén floods damage Vaca Muerta infrastructure, bridge collapse disrupts Route 5

Intense rains in Neuquén reactivated dry gullies, causing flash floods that destroyed a bridge under construction on Route 5, swept vehicles, and forced evacuations. The Vaca Muerta shale region, critical to Argentina's energy output, is the most affected area. Damage to transport links may disrupt oilfield logistics and production, though the full extent is still being assessed.
