Floods in Togo

Over 10,000 people are affected by the floods and six people are dead. Roads and railways are impracticable, which caused a lack of access to entire communities, isolating the north from the south of the country. In addition, some 400 houses collapsed and the telephone network was also cut in some flooded areas.
