Four million people have been impacted by flooding in northeastern Bangladesh, according to Dr. Enamur Rahman, the country's State Minister for the Ministry of Disaster Management.
Rahman told CNN on Sunday that at least two people had died due to flooding in Bangladesh. News agency reports suggest the toll is much higher, with Reuters reporting 25 deaths over the weekend, citing local officials.A lack of telecommunication services has made it difficult to fully assess the extent of the damage, particularly in the hard-hit districts of Sylhet and Sunamganj, Rahman said.
