The Central Area Command of the Maldives National Defence Force (MNDF) is actively providing assistance to victims affected by heavy rainfall in Laamu Gan.

The Maldives has been experiencing unstable weather conditions in recent days, with the Maldives Meteorological Service issuing multiple warnings of heavy rain and strong winds across several atolls.

These conditions, attributed to the ongoing northeast monsoon season, have led to flooding in the islands s and caused significant disruptions in daily life.

In Laamu Gan, torrential downpours caused widespread waterlogging, prompting response from the MNDF.

Details regarding the extent of the damage and the number of individuals requiring assistance are yet to be disclosed.
