Situation Overview
The southwestern monsoons in Sri
Lanka have resulted in severe flooding
and landslides throughout the country.
The previous drought has accelerated
the effects of flooding — causing flash
floods and small landslides. Over half a
million people have been affected with
over 200 deaths.
Search and rescue operations
continue to be ongoing, with the
assistance of the Sri Lankan tri-
forces. As flood waters recede and
roads are cleared, the Government
continues to validate the number of
people affected and casualties. As of
4 June, a total of 717,622 people have
been affected by the 2017 floods and landslides,
according to the Disaster Management Centre (DMC).
On 30 May, the Humanitarian Country Team
initiated the development of an in-country emergency
response plan to respond to the most immediate needs
of the flood and landslide affected communities. A
sectorial approach to coordinate the immediate
response was also endorsed with IOM co-leading the
Shelter sector.
Confirmed funding will allow IOM and
implementing partners to move forward with the shelter
sector emergency response plans. This includes shelter
repair kits and shelter-related NFIs for people with
damaged houses and temporary/transitional shelter
assistance for those who will be facing protracted
displacement.
