Flood in Sudan

Severe floods have affected Darfur and areas along the Nile affecting several local communities and cultural heritage sites.

Flooding is an annual challenge in Sudan in August and September. Around that time each year, monsoon rains pour into the Ethiopian Highlands and flow down to the Blue Nile and White Nile. As the rivers wind their way north through Sudan and South Sudan, floodwaters often swamp riverside communities.
