The death toll in Bangladesh rose to 51 on Monday after heavy rains triggered floods and landslides in the country’s southeastern parts, leaving more than a million marooned, officials said.
Authorities have reported flooding across seven districts – Chattogram, Cox’s Bazar, Bandarban, Rangamati, Khagrachhari, Moulvibazar and Habiganj, as days of torrential monsoon rains have taken their toll on daily life.
