FL-2005-000063-ROM Flood Romania Flood,Serbia Montenegro: Due to heavy rains in April and snow melting in Romania?s Carpathian Mountains, the water level of the Tamis River (on the Romania/Serbia border) has risen rapidly. As a consequence, on 20 April at 21:00 the water overflowed the river banks and broke the dike on the Romanian side of the river, flooding the area surrounding the Jasa Tomic village in Serbia. The village is situated in the municipality of Secanj, in the eastern part of Vojvodina where 2,996 inhabitants (1,000 households) live. Sixty percent (60%) of the population is elderly, and forty percent (40%) live on agricultural production. Initial reports indicate that 700 houses are completely flooded, and 100 have been destroyed by the water. Since most of the houses are constructed out of clay bricks, there is a fear that many more houses will be heavily damaged or completely destroyed when the water withdraws.

FL-2005-000062-TZA Flood Tanzania Unprecedented heavy rainfall in Zanzibar Island for two consecutive days (17-18 April 2005) has led to heavy flooding in what has been described as the worst in 40 years. The flooding has completely submerged several hundred houses, totally damaged a few and destroyed infrastructure in six of the hardest hit administrative locations/wards of Mwanakelekwe, Jang'ombe, Sebuleni, Karahani, Mombasa and Miembeni in Zanzibar urban. To date, no resulting deaths or injuries have been reported by the government; however, 150 families have been formally registered to have been rendered homeless, and have been given temporary accommodation in three schools (closed due to the flooding). As of Wednesday 20 April, 2005, sixty-four (64) houses had been destroyed in urban areas and 10 in rural areas. All household items were lost in the deluge. 
DR-2005-000061-DJI Drought Djibouti Djibouti is currently facing worsening drought conditions due to the consequences of two consecutive failed rainy seasons, where erratic rainfall patterns adversely affected the replenishment of water catchments and the regeneration of pastures. Delayed rains resulted in abnormal pastoral migration patterns and a further depletion of already exhausted pasture and browse in all grazing areas. The rain has also been insufficient to replenish much-needed water sources throughout the country and it is below the threshold for pasture regeneration. All water catchments in the south are practically dry. The food security and livelihoods of 5,000 families (28,650 people) have been severely compromised by limited water and pasture. Significant over-grazing of pasture and the depletion of water sources have contributed to widespread livestock deaths and a considerable decline in milk productivity. The remaining animals are in bad conditions due mainly to opportunistic parasites and diseases.  
VO-2005-000060-COM Volcano Comoros The Karthala Volcano has been showing signs of increasing activity over the past week. This activity has escalated further since Saturday 16 April in late afternoon, with clouds of ash and smoke affecting a number of villages in the Dimani and Pidjani regions in the eastern part of the island. Reports also indicate that some rivers flowing on the flank of the volcano have become polluted with volcanic debris. On Sunday 17 April, populations from these villages began to flee in fear of gas and lava flow. According to the local authorities, as many as 10,000 people may have fled from their homes in the eastern region in order to seek refuge in other parts of the island.

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. Kirkuk received 35 mm of rain, impacting 100 families (600 people) in the Laylan/Yarmja area. Erbil floods affected 6 families (36 people).

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.
