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.
