International report: 875 people died and were injured as a result of floods in Yemen

An international report monitored the death of 240 people and the injury of 635 others as a result of rains and floods in Yemen during the current year in twenty governorates.
The International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies stated, in a report, that the rainy season in Yemen for the current year witnessed unprecedented rainfall, causing severe floods that led to destruction and displacement in Yemen.
He indicated that this exacerbated the deteriorating humanitarian situation due to prolonged conflict, disasters and the spread of diseases, noting that more than six hundred and fifty-five thousand people, constituting ninety-three thousand families, were affected by the floods.
The report said that 20 out of 22 governorates were severely affected, with thousands of homes and temporary shelters destroyed, with about 500,000 people displaced.
With regard to the health situation, the report indicated that the country recorded more than 186,000 suspected cases of cholera, in addition to severe damage to 126 health facilities.
The report touched on the impact of about 99 thousand hectares of agricultural land, and large numbers of livestock died, which increases the suffering of families in meeting their food needs.
The report suggested providing urgent solutions, including providing shelter, food, health care, and cash assistance.
