A total of 450 houses in low-lying wards of Kyaikmaraw Township, Mon State were submerged as the water level of Attaran River has risen due to the continuous heavy rainfall starting from the second week of July.

 The elders, children and animals were evacuated by the natural disaster management committee and moved to safer places.

The flood hazards occurred and wreaked havoc on transport in Mon State these days. The communities join the safety precaution measures for flood risks. The committee is raising awareness of floods in the wards and ensuring the safety of the people.
