Flood in Sudan
After months of heavy rainfall, Arbaat dam in the Red Sea state of Sudan collapsed on 25 August 2024. The dam has a capacity of 25 million cubic metres and was the main source of drinking water for the city of Port Sudan.
Water from the burst dam swept away and destroyed nearby farms and villages, leaving thousands of residents displaced. Additionally, the torrential rains have also damaged fibre-optic cables causing a communication outage in many parts of the country for the second day in a row.
It was reported that Sudan's air force is conducting search and rescue operations for people who sought refuge in the mountains. The current death toll totals to 60. However, there are concerns that the death toll could rise even higher.
