Devastation and Mourning: Floods and Landslides in the Democratic Republic of Congo and Rwanda

The Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) has been hit by devastating floods and landslides that have claimed nearly 400 lives in two villages in the country's Eastern region. The incident has prompted the DRC government to observe a national day of mourning in honor of the victims. Meanwhile, rescue teams continue to look for more bodies that are believed to be trapped in the affected areas. The situation is critical, and the authorities are strained due to the ongoing humanitarian crisis in the region. However, the provincial authorities have already sent relief in the form of food, medical supplies, and water to some of the affected villages.
