2 Killed, Thousands Evacuated in Heavy Rains in Brazil
Israa Farhan Severe rainfall has claimed at least two lives and forced thousands to evacuate in the southern Brazilian state of Rio Grande do Sul, just over a year after historic floods devastated the same region. According to local authorities, more than 2,000 residents were displaced as torrential downpours triggered landslides, road collapses, bridge failures, and widespread power outages across the state. The latest weather event has further strained infrastructure already weakened by previous natural disasters. Rio Grande do Sul Governor Eduardo Leite stated on the social platform X that some areas received over 350 millimeters of rain since the weekend. Emergency services have been mobilized to assist affected communities, with rescue teams deployed to the hardest-hit areas. Several of the municipalities impacted by this week's storms were also among those devastated by the catastrophic floods in May of last year, which claimed more than 100 lives and left a trail of destruction across the region. read more Gold prices rise, 21 Karat at EGP 3685 NATO's Role in Israeli-Palestinian Conflict US Expresses 'Strong Opposition' to New Turkish Military Operation in Syria Shoukry Meets Director-General of FAO Lavrov: confrontation bet. nuclear powers must be avoided News Iran Summons French Ambassador over Foreign Minister Remarks News Aboul Gheit Condemns Israeli Escalation in West Bank News Greek PM: Athens Plays Key Role in Improving Energy Security in Region News One Person Injured in Explosion at Ukrainian Embassy in Madrid News China Launches Largest Ever Aircraft Carrier Sports Former Al Zamalek Player Ibrahim Shika Passes away after Long Battle with Cancer Lifestyle Get to Know 2025 Eid Al Adha Prayer Times in Egypt Business Fear & Greed Index Plummets to Lowest Level Ever Recorded amid Global Trade War Arts & Culture Zahi Hawass: Claims of Columns Beneath the Pyramid of Khafre Are Lies News Flights suspended at Port Sudan Airport after Drone Attacks Videos & Features Video: Trending Lifestyle TikToker Valeria Márquez Shot Dead during Live Stream News Shell Unveils Cost-Cutting, LNG Growth Plan Technology 50-Year Soviet Spacecraft 'Kosmos 482' Crashes into Indian Ocean News 3 Killed in Shooting Attack in Thailand
