Info On The Devastation Caused By
Hurricane Stan in Guatemala
Entire Guatemalan villages have been wiped out by landslides and flash floods and hundreds of people have been killed due to Hurricane Stan. The search for survivors has been called off, and the death toll could climb to 2000. More than 90,000 people are living in shelters, and water and electricity have been cut in the affected areas. Crops, livelihoods and homes have been destroyed and the threat of hunger and disease looms. The storm has also damaged water supplies and sanitation systems, destroyed many houses, mainly affecting the poorest people, and Guatemalan authorities fear this may cause an epidemic of gastrointestinal illness - which is especially devastating for malnourished children.
