Aceh Tenggara District, NAD
1. On 18 October, heavy rains caused a flash flood and a number of landslides, inundating an area in two sub-districts, Kecamatan Semadam and Kecamatan Bukit Tusam. Six villages are reported to have been affected. The flood and landslide carrying mud inundated about 400-500 houses, affecting 1,000 internally displaced persons. At least 5 people are reported dead. The Indonesian Red Cross (PMI) reported that the disaster seriously injured 68 people and slightly injured another 143.
2. Limited road access due to thick mud has created difficulties to quickly move the affected communities from their houses. There is no electricity and clean water in the affected villages. The road from Medan to Kutacane is open and accessible, and communication using mobile phone was reportedly possible in the affected area.

Flood |
Sudan |
Heavy rainstorms with gale-force winds were recorded on 31 August in Port Sudan. Several administrative units (Central, Eastern, Southern Administrative Units, Arbaat and Suakin) suffered most damage. Approximately 156,000 people were affected, including 17,000 (3340 households) whose homes and belongings were totally destroyed.
The rainstorm destroyed most of the houses made of mats/grass sheeting or timber, roofs of schools in the area blown off, the few household items owned by IDPs were blown away and latrines flooded. The available water sources were flooded resulting in further contamination by seawater; the price of clean water consequently doubled (from 50SDD to 100SDD). Victims in certain areas ? mainly IDPs from South Sudan, Nuba mountains, Western Sudan, Eritrea and from within Red Sea state- are living in the open next to their destroyed homes.

FF-2025-000222-IRQ
Flash Flood,Iraq: On Tuesday, 9 December 2025, heavy rainfall across several Iraqi governorates—linked to climate change—triggered floods and torrential streams, particularly in Sulaymaniyah, Kirkuk, and Erbil.
Sulaymaniyah recorded 61 mm of rain, affecting over 250 families (1,500 people), causing 2 deaths, 1 injury, and 3 missing persons, with significant property and vehicle losses.

FF-2025-000223-MAR
Flash Flood,Morocco: On 14 December 2025, intense short-duration rainfall triggered sudden urban and flash flooding in Safi Province, Atlantic coast of Morocco, overwhelming drainage systems and inundating low-lying, densely populated neighborhoods, particularly the Medina (Bab Chaaba and Sidi Boudheb). The event was rated 0.5 on the GDACS scale. Reported impacts include 52 fatalities, 20-50 injuries, and approximately 700 affected households (≈2,800 people), with an estimated 300 homes partially or fully flooded, loss of household items, temporary displacement, and precautionary school closures. Flooding also affected ~700 small businesses, vehicles, and road access, complicating emergency response. Local authorities mobilized rapidly, but the sudden onset and scale placed pressure on response capacities amid high urban density, inadequate drainage, and socio-economic vulnerability. Given the humanitarian impact and response gaps, DREF activation is warranted to support timely life-saving assistance and early recovery.
