Nearly 300,000 Bangladeshis in shelters after monsoon rains cause severe flooding

ai generated text

Bangladesh is experiencing severe flooding due to heavy monsoon rains, with nearly 300,000 people taking refuge in emergency shelters. The floods have resulted in at least 42 deaths in Bangladesh and India since the start of the week. The country's geography, with hundreds of rivers crisscrossing it, makes it prone to frequent flooding. Climate change is also contributing to the issue, shifting weather patterns and increasing the number of extreme weather events.
