Bangladesh Floods food distribution July 14

Already flooded this year, people in the lowlands and swamp areas of Sunamganj are seeing fresh flooding again due to heavy rainfall and water from upstream. 183mm of rainfall has so far been recorded.

Floodwaters have entered the lowlands of Sunamganj, affecting livestock and damaging crops and roads.

Caravan of Mercy has already sent £60,000 in aid to the area and aims to send more. We have been distributing food, safe drinking water, and shelter equipment for flood-affected families.
