Nearly 300 Homes Damaged by Rain in Kasongo

A heavy rain on October 13 in Kasongo, Maniema province, damaged nearly 300 homes across four neighborhoods, including Kauta. Roofs were swept away and walls destroyed, leaving many families homeless. Civil society organization Force Civile warns about health risks, as the area is already experiencing diarrhea cases, worsened by limited access to clean water. No emergency aid had been provided at the time of the report, increasing the vulnerability of affected populations.
