Comments: | The ongoing flood crisis in Bangladesh began in mid-May 2025, primarily triggered by heavy monsoon rainfall and upstream water flow from India. The situation has worsened significantly towards the end of May when a deep depression formed over the Bay of Bengal making landfall near the West Bengal-Bangladesh coast on 29 May 2025. This weather condition brought torrential rains and strong winds exacerbating the flooding particularly in the northeastern and southeastern regions of the country. As of 1 June 2025, several districts, including Sylhet, Sunamganj, Moulvibazar, Habiganj, Netrokona, Noakhali, Bhola, Khagrachari, Bandarban and Rangamati have been severely affected. |
