Le foto delle alluvioni ad Assam

Dall'inizio di giugno le piogge monsoniche hanno provocato la morte di 35 persone, in India

A mahout moves an elephant to higher ground as villagers padddle with their belongings through flood waters in the Pobitora Wildlife Sanctuary, some 55 kms from Guwahati, the capital city of the northeastern state of Assam on June 28, 2012. Floodwaters have submerged some 90 per cent of the sanctuary forcing rhinos and other wild animals to shelter in the woodland of the park which is located at a higher altitude. More than 850,000 people have been displaced and road communication disrupted in several parts of the state due to flooding caused by seasonal monsoon rains, a government official said.

Almeno 35 persone sono morte a causa delle alluvioni provocate dalle piogge torrenziali monsoniche nello stato di Assam, nell’India nord-orientale, dall’inizio di giugno. Un milione di persone ha dovuto lasciare le proprie case, soprattutto quelle vicino al fiume Brahmaputra prossimo alla piena, per rifugiarsi nei 173 campi appositamente allestiti dal governo. Le alluvioni hanno causato anche molti danni economici, distrutto 43 mila ettari di terreni coltivati e devastato più di duemila villaggi nell’Assam. Nel confinante Bangladesh le piogge monsoniche hanno provocato frane e alluvioni che hanno ucciso più di cento persone.
