More than 72 percent of Sylhet division is under water. They have no food and safe water to drink and more than a 50thousand family lose their house.
Out of four districts in the Sylhet division – 89 percent area of Sunamganj, 72 percent of Sylhet, 70 percent of Habiganj, and 50 percent of Moulvibazar were submerged.
The flood was triggered on Wednesday (June 15, 2022) due to torrential rainfall in the north-eastern districts, and the flash flood in upstream India's Meghalaya and Assam where record-breaking rainfall was recorded.
More than 40 lakh people remain marooned in different upazilas and towns while other areas are on the verge of being inundated in the Sylhet division.Based on analysis of high-resolution Sentinel-1 radar (SAR) satellite images captured on the afternoon of June 16, 2022, Casual Faculty Palash Basak of the School of Environmental and Life Sciences at the University of Newcastle, Australia made the flood map.
However, the downpour has been continuing and the situation worsened since those satellite images were taken.
