Description

Indonesians hit by last week’s catastrophic floods are now facing outbreaks of disease. Many survivors remain without shelter and lack access to food, clean water and medicine. Several communities are still completely cut off by damaged roads and high water levels. Collapsed homes and destroyed infrastructure have left families exposed to the elements. Local authorities warn that shortages of basic goods are worsening by the day. Rescue workers are struggling to reach the worst-affected areas. Al Jazeera’s Jessica Washington reports from Indonesia’s Aceh Tamiang, where aid delivery remains a major challenge.
