Comments: Between 7-15 June 2005, torrential rain on the commune of C?tes-de-Fer in the South-East Department, resulted in both the swelling of the river and serious flooding in the commune. The worst-hit zone is the village of Marie G?ralde Roberte, built for impoverished families at the foot of a hill made up of large stones. With around 50 houses, the village has some 300 inhabitants who live with the constant threat of natural disasters. The disaster in the commune has seriously damaged three houses, leaving 13 families without shelter. Two people were seriously injured and three others have suffered fractures. Plantations and cattle were swept away by the rains.
