EU releases €1.1mn emergency assistance for flood victims in Bangladesh

Staff Reporter:

The European Commission has released €1.1 million in humanitarian aid after devastating floods hit Bangladesh in recent weeks.

This funding complements the ongoing distribution of hygiene and sanitary items, shelter tools, and kitchen sets from EU-funded emergency stockpiles, said the European Union (EU) Embassy in Dhaka on Thursday.

Janez Lenarcic, Commissioner for Crisis Management, said the floods in Bangladesh have had a devastating impact on the affected communities.

“We are making European Union funding available and have released contingency stocks that will help our humanitarian partners save lives during this emergency.”

The funding announced today comes in addition to over €33.5 million already allocated in EU humanitarian assistance to Bangladesh in 2024.

This assistance mainly funded support to Rohingya refugees living in Cox’s Bazar, but also the response to other emergencies in the country, such as heatwaves, cyclones and flooding, as well as anticipatory actions.
