Beginning in early June, exceptionally heavy monsoon rains
led to widespread flooding, affecting Bangladesh, India,
and Nepal. In addition, in late June, a cyclone and heavy
rain affected Pakistan, resulting in severe flooding in two
southern provinces.
USAID/OFDA responded to the flooding through the provision
of disaster assistance funding in India, Nepal, and Pakistan
and through continued support for flood preparedness programs
in Bangladesh. In addition, USAID/OFDA continues to fund
regional preparedness programs in South Asia.
