Drought exposes "hunger stones" and shipwreck on the Rhine

The receding waters have revealed so-called "hunger stones" – boulders historically carved with warnings during droughts and famines – as well as the wreck of a fishing boat. The sight is being described as alarming evidence of worsening climate conditions.
