Torrential rains triggered deadly flash floods across São Vicente and Santo Antão in Cape Verde, leaving over 119,000 people affected, with homes destroyed, health facilities flooded, and communities cut off. Thousands have lost access to safe water, food, and healthcare, while more heavy rains remain a looming threat. The Red Cross of Cape Verde, supported by the IFRC, is providing emergency relief, clean water, shelter, and health support but urgently needs resources to reach more families in crisis.
