Alert note: Flooding in Afghanistan

Danish Afghanistan Committee has submitted an alert due to flooding in Afghanistan.

Heavy rains and flash floods have been experienced across several regions in Afghanistan. Civilian casualties and damage and destruction sustained to homes, and critical civilian infrastructure such as roads, bridges and culverts have been damaged causing disruption to transportation networks. More than 930 houses have been destroyed (198) or damaged (738), along with around 63,700 acres of agricultural land and at least 470 livestock reportedly killed. The villages and local communities are mainly dependent on livestock income and on agriculture income and many communities farmlands were affected by floods. Many people in the affected areas in Herat and Badghis districts uprooted by floods have no alternative except to live in tents or improvised homes within incomplete buildings, making them particularly exposed during the winter and spring time.
