Bangladesh Floods Continue Unabated
A group of people are caught in the flooding in Sirajgong District, Bangladesh on August 1, 2007. Sirajgong District is connected bisected by two rivers, the Jumuna, Brahmaputra, and every day the water level of these rivers has been increasing and has crossed the terrible level reached during the 1988 flood. 38 villages have been inundated with flood water that has affected 200,000 people and left 18 people dead. People have begun to take shelter in the highlands. Getting clean water for drinking and cooking has become almost impossible and people have to depend on dry food. In some remote areas people are not receiving any help, and there are no boats available for transfer to a safe shelter. (FOTO: DUKAS/WORLDPICTURENEWS)
