Monsoon rain has caused damage to over 5,500 shelters in camps, forcing families to repair homes or seek temporary refuge. The damage was caused by rainwater, strong winds, and landslides. Despite the widespread damage, stronger Temporary Safer Shelters supported by the Bangladesh Red Crescent Society and the IFRC sustained no significant damage.

These shelters offer a glimpse of what is possible in a disaster-prone area, where over one million people face risks from fire, flooding, storms, and landslides. Further details on the situation and the efforts to provide safer shelters are available from the source.
