Floods caused by unusually heavy rainfall attributed to the "El Niño" effect have affected almost every department in Bolivia over the past two months and have not ceased. The departments of Santa Cruz and Beni are the worst hit. Approximately 350,000 people have been affected; at least 35 people were killed and 10 are missing. Many thousands of homes have been completely destroyed; crops, livestock, roads and other infrastructure damaged. Roads are blocked by floods and mudslides, and people cut off from emergency services.
