More than 200 people killed by flash floods and landslides in the Democratic Republic of Congo

We are deeply concerned about the recent flash floods in the village of Nyamukubi, Democratic Republic of Congo.

Flash floods can occur without warning, leaving little time to evacuate or prepare. They are often caused by heavy rainfall or rapid snowmelt, and can cause widespread damage to homes, businesses, and infrastructure. In the case of Nyamukubi, the flooding has caused significant damage to roads, bridges, and homes, leaving many families without shelter or access to basic services.
