Mvua zinazoendelea Nchini Sudan zimesababisha mafuriko huku idadi ya vifo vya Watu ikifika 100
Hali ya dharura imetangazwa katika majimbo 6 yaliyoathiriwa vibaya ambapo Afisa wa Umoja wa Mataifa amesema zaidi ya Watu 280,000 wameathiriwa na mafuriko katika majimbo 15 kati ya 18.
Wananchi wengi wameyakimbia makazi yao kutokana na mafuriko baada ya mvua kunyesha mara kwa mara kwa wiki mbili mfululizo. Mwaka 2021 mvua za vipindi zilizababisha vifo vya watu 80 Nchini humo

‘Nothing left’: Floods in Sudan leave 100 dead, many homeless
Floods have continued to cause devastation in Sudan, with more than 100 people killed and thousands affected by torrential rains and authorities declaring an emergency in six of the hardest-hit provinces in the country.
The UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs on Wednesday said at least 258,000 people have been affected by the floods in 15 out of 18 provinces.
Al Jazeera’s Hiba Morgan, reporting from Gezira, said many residents have been forced out of their homes since heavy rains hit the region more than two weeks ago.
“Gezira is one of the states where the government has declared a disaster. Dozens of villages have been submerged here since the beginning of the rainy season, leaving hundreds of families homeless,” Morgan said.
Morgan added that many people have sought refuge on drier land, but said that they are yet to receive any help.
“We woke up to water entering the homes and got out what we can. Every hour we hear a house has fallen, or a sewage system has collapsed or a wall has come down. There is nothing left,” Adam Ismail, a resident of Wad Alnaeim, told Al Jazeera.
Ismail added that he had been waiting for the water to recede so that he and his mother could go back and rebuild their home again. Two weeks in, he is unsure how long that will take.
