Flood in Somalia

Weeks of heavy rainfall has resulted in extensive flooding in Somalia. The floods are estimated to have affected half a million people.

The rain caused the Shabelle and Juba rivers to bust their banks, and flood areas along the rivers. More than 200,000 people were forced to evacuate. The floods have affected HirShablle, Jubbaland and South West state. It has also been reported that Somali National security forces evacuated more than 10,000 people, marooned by the raging floods in Belet Weyne, in HirShabelle state.

Emergency settlements are being set up to tend to the victims, but there are concerns that limited access to clean water will pose a risk of water-borne diseases arising.
