📍Pwani See how the floods have destroyed people’s houses and properties in Homoro village, Rufiji district, Pwani Region IFRC Africa IFRC

Tanzania has declared a national state of emergency due to severe floods in Pwani (Rufiji + Kibiti districts) and Morogoro (Kilombero district). Over 10,000 families have been displaced & more than 8,000 homes damaged. Tanzania Red Cross Society is responding, supporting affected families.

“Only boats are working in the flooded areas. It took four hours to reach a marooned village and the scenes are devastating,” Daniel Mutinda, @IFRC Disaster & Climate Crises Delegate. He's in Tanzania assessing the severe floods with Tanzania Red Cross Society. Over 85,000 people are displaced.

Tanzania Red Cross Society and IFRC assessment team are still on the ground. Very challenging to move around the area but no giving up. Together with the community they fixed temporarily a bridge to allow relief items to be delivered by trucks

"We found a bridge we had used in the morning heading for an assessment damaged and we had to wait for hours as the community tried to fix it," Matt Baden, IFRC In-Country Ops Manager. Tanzania Red Cross Society has set up 9 camps to support families affected by the #Tanzania flooding.
