Over the past several months, from March through August 2024, catastrophic floods have wreaked across numerous governorates, including Al-Hudaydah, Hajjah, Taiz, Dhamar, Sanaa, Amran, and Saadah deeply impacting approximately 39,765 households, according to the Yemen Red Crescent Society (YRC). The floods have led to significant loss of life and have left over 278,355 people in urgent need of assistance. The impact has been particularly devastating in Internally Displaced Persons (IDP) sites and surrounding communities, where homes, farms, and livelihoods have been destroyed. The situation is compounded by the challenges in accessing affected areas, as the movement of landmines, road damage, and the widespread nature of the impacted communities hinder the delivery of essential aid. These floods have not only inflicted widespread damage on infrastructure and homes but have also intensified vulnerabilities, particularly among IDPs who were already living in precarious conditions. The convergence of the floods with Yemen's protracted conflict has created urgent needs in shelter, health services, and food security, further complicated by significant health risks, including potential outbreaks of waterborne diseases and the displacement of unexploded ordnances. This dire situation underscores the critical need for a coordinated and enhanced response to address the compounded impacts of climate-induced disasters amid ongoing conflict.  FL-2024-000146-NPL Flood Nepal A massive flood has caused widespread destruction in ward 5 of Khumbu Pasang Lhamu Rural Municipality in Solukhumbu district.  FL-2024-000145-SSD Flood South Sudan Between 16th and 31st July 2024, a series of events led to the displacement of 3,180 individuals across Aweil West (2,190 individuals), Jur River (522 individuals), and Panyijar counties (468 individuals).
