DHAKA, BANGLADESH ” May 1, 2026: After several hours of continuous rainfall, many small and major roads across the capital Dhaka were submerged, with water levels ranging from knee-deep to waist-deep in some areas. People forced to leave their homes for work faced severe difficulties, disrupting normal city life. Stray dogs and other animals were also left vulnerable in the flooded conditions. In many cases, clogged manholes filled with plastic waste and debris obstructed drainage systems, leading to widespread waterlogging. Dhaka Bangladesh - ZUMAk185 20260501_zip_k185_007
