According to a UN report of 23 July, over 40,000 people remain displaced by monsoon flooding in Myanmar that began earlier this month.

The UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (UN OCHA) in Myanmar reports that monsoon rains and increased river levels triggered flooding in pockets across eight states and regions with evacuations in several townships. A cumulative number of 78,000 people were displaced to 186 evacuation centres in Kachin, Rakhine, Chin, and Mon states, as well as Bago, Sagaing, Mandalay and Magway regions, according to the national Department of Disaster Management (DDM).
The situation has started to improve and where flood waters have receded, evacuation centres have been closed and people have returned to their homes.
