National parks, ports and highways are under water after extensive flooding caused by torrential downpours in several East African countries.
Worst hit is Burundi, where the country’s interior minister is now asking its development partners to “help all the people affected by these disasters” together with Burundi.
Over 200,000 people have been affected between September and the beginning of April this year. 19,250 homes and 209 classrooms have been destroyed.
