Sarapiquí Flooding: 330 Still in Shelters as Yellow Alert Holds

Four days after floodwaters swept through Sarapiquí in the dark, the water has not receded. More than 330 people remain in shelters, with numbers rising each day. At least three communities are cut off by road, forcing authorities to deliver food and supplies by boat. The yellow alert remains in place as saturated ground continues to pose a risk of further flooding. Emergency teams are working around the clock to assist affected families and maintain access to basic necessities.
