Floods in Bangladesh and Northeast India Claim at Least 15 Lives
ai generated text
The flooding in Bangladesh and India has resulted in significant displacement and loss of life. In Bangladesh, nearly 3 million people have been affected, with millions stranded and vast areas submerged. In India's northeastern state of Tripura, at least 11 people have died and over 64,000 people are seeking shelter in relief camps. The flooding has also caused damage to homes and infrastructure.
We don't expect people to be able to return home anytime soon.
We are closely monitoring the situation and are focusing on providing relief to those displaced from their homes.
No gate has been opened for the Gomati Hydro Electric Project.
This flood came from India, because India opened the dam. If this water goes over, it will flood the whole area and Cumilla city.
We are taking shelter at a house where about 35 people need to be rescued soon. The water is still rising and now we are on the rooftop with our small kids and elderly family members.
Please send us a boat. Please save us.
We've constructed a makeshift tent on the roof with tarpaulin but there's about 40 of us on the roofs of two one-story homes.
We have been on the roof for hours, my body is shivering, our phones also won't have a battery for long, so we need to get help quick.
