Recent heavy rains in Bangladesh and northeast India have led to severe flooding, affecting over 300,000 people in southeastern Bangladesh alone. The flooding has submerged hundreds of homes, leaving residents stranded on rooftops. In Tripura, India, at least 11 people have lost their lives, with over 64,000 seeking shelter in relief camps.
Scientists attribute the intensified weather events to the human-caused climate crisis, which has exacerbated the impact of monsoon season floods. Parts of India's northeast and eastern Bangladesh have experienced heavy rainfall, resulting in dangerous floodwaters.
