Situation Overview

The southwestern monsoons in Sri Lanka have resulted in severe flooding and landslides throughout the country. The previous drought has accelerated the effects of flooding -- causing flash floods and small landslides. Over half a million people have been affected with over 200 deaths.

Search and rescue operations continue to be ongoing, with the assistance of the Sri Lankan triforces. As flood waters recede and roads are cleared, the Government continues to validate the number of people affected and casualties. As of 4 June, a total of 717,622 people have

been affected by the 2017 floods and landslides, according to the Disaster Management Centre (DMC).

On 30 May, the Humanitarian Country Team initiated the development of an in-country emergency response plan to respond to the most immediate needs of the flood and landslide affected communities. A sectorial approach to coordinate the immediate response was also endorsed with IOM co-leading the Shelter sector.

Confirmed funding will allow IOM and implementing partners to move forward with the shelter sector emergency response plans. This includes shelter repair kits and shelter-related NFIs for people with damaged houses and temporary/transitional shelter assistance for those who will be facing protracted displacement.
