Flooding of Kavango, Namibia and Angola

Heavy rains in Angola and parts of Zambia's Western Province led to flooding in Namibia's north and north-eastern parts. On March 18, 2009, emergency was declared in the concerned areas where floods have caused large-scale destruction to homes, schools, health facilities, mahangu and maize fields and infrastructure. The maps show the area around Rundu (Namibia) and Calai (Angola), two towns situated along the Cubango River bank.
