Angola – Heavy rain and flash floods in Luanda, capital of Angola, caused fatalities and widespread damage on 19 April 2021. Preliminary figures showed 14 people had died, 2 were injured, 1,617 homes flooded and 16 collapsed. As many as 8,165 people are thought to have been displaced or severely affected as a result. Roads in the south of the city were closed after a bridge of the Camorteiro River in the municipality of Talatona was partially destroyed. Flooding came after a period of heavy rain early on 19 April. Drainage channels blocked by garbage reportedly worsened the situation.
