May 11, 2024, 10:10 AM
Southern Brazil, particularly Rio Grande do Sul, is experiencing catastrophic flooding, described as the worst in 80 years, leading to significant loss of life and widespread displacement. The floods have claimed at least 136 lives, with 116 confirmed dead, 143 missing, and 756 injured. Around 400,000 people have been evacuated. Rescue efforts include evacuating stranded animals and setting up shelters for displaced pets. The UN and local authorities are distributing relief items and assessing needs. The flooding has also impacted Brazil's energy system and delayed its transition to cleaner energies. More rain is expected, exacerbating the situation.
