307,000 people are in shelters and more than 5.2 million have been affected by the floods. Currently the number of fatalities is at 18, it was reported.
311,419 hectares of land has been submerged. The flooding has impacted rural roads, agricultural fields, and aquacultural fishponds. Communication and coordination have been impacted due to power outages and limited connectivity. As of 24 August, nearly 928,000 people remained without power. 7,000 schools across the impacted districts have had to close.
Rescue teams, which also included military and navy forces, are bringing aid to those who have lost their homes. Disaster Management Minister reported that the flood situation is improving as the flood water has started to recede.
