Within the analyzed area of about 22,000 km², about 180 km² of land appear to be flooded. Water extent appears to have decreased by about 230 km² since 28 March 2023. Based on Worldpop population data and the detected surface waters in the analyzed area, 19,000 people are potentially exposed or living close to flooded areas. This is a preliminary analysis and has not yet been validated in the field.
