Flood in India
Heavy rainfall has caused widespread flooding in the north-eastern Indian state of Assam. Over 2 million people have been affected and at least 50 died.
Authorities have set up 480 relief camps across 20 districts, providing temporary shelter for more than 60,000 people as thousands of homes were submerged.
Officials reported that swathes of the Kaziranga National Park in the state had been flooded and at least 51 wild animals had died with over a hundred more being rescued.
Monsoon rains in the region are common, but this year Covid-19 has affected aid responses. Assam State Disaster Management Authority (ASDMA) reported the situation could improve in the coming days, with water levels beginning to stabilise.
