Landslides and flooding in Brazil
Heavy rains triggered floods and landslides in Brazil, killing at least 36 people. The hardest-hit regions have been Sao Sebastiao, Ubatuba, Ilhabela and Bertioga.
Entire neighbourhoods have been inundated in water with only roofs visible of some houses, while highways and roads remained cut off with fallen trees. Rescue workers are bracing for more heavy rains that will continue to lash Sao Paulo's coastal area, leading to difficult conditions for evacuations and rescue and relief work.
