towards the east africa more heavy rainfall is expected in the next coming days. all right i'm joined by jim a connal in nairobi she's from the united nations and is coordinating their aid relief to the affected areas welcome to the africa gemma can you tell us about the situation on the ground as we speak in the flood affected areas. sharyn thanks so much for having me today we've got a very serious situation across multiple countries in east africa right now there's about 2500000 people affected by the flooding across the region and that includes in ethiopia somalia south sudan and sudan as well as more people in tanzania and uganda so there are hundreds of thousands of people who are being displaced who have lost their homes who have lost their livelihoods we've got many reports of thousands of livestock killed across these countries by the floods was referring flooding and flash flooding and of course we've got roads down and we've got access

challenges to get to people in meat right talking about those access challenges how are you getting the aid into those remote parts where bridges have been swept away and roads as you say. so in each of the countries across the region the humanitarians are scaling up as rapidly as they can where using helicopters in many countries in south sudan and somalia for example in other countries where using boats to try and get to people in need and in other places you see humanitarians literally walking the last mile to reach people who need assistance and those if it's must be commended him or we are talking about a situation where we can expect at least from what we're hearing from the full cost is that these heavy rains will continue for the months to come and really just how prepared are you from an aid relief perspective for this. it's an excellent question so we are very worried about the forecast the one piece of good news is we have seen a small amount of reprieve in recent days with less rains falling but that certainly
12:21 am
