Rwanda’s Devastating Floods: A Wake-Up Call for Climate Change Action

5 Maggio 2023

Let’s pray for Rwanda, where at least 127 people have been killed due to the flash floods triggered by heavy rains. The death toll is expected to increase. According to authorities, the torrential rains have swept through the Western, Southern and Northern, destroying houses and roads. Experts say extreme weather is more likely to happen with more frequency and intensity due to climate change. In fact in Uganda, at least six people died from landslides in their homes.
