The EU allocated an additional 1 million euros in aid for those affected by flooding, bringing the total humanitarian assistance for the year to over 30 million euros. The EU Commissioner for Crisis Management noted that, similar to their response to Cyclone Remal, the EU is stepping up to support those impacted by the recent monsoon floods in Bangladesh. The northern regions of the country have been heavily affected, with 3.7 million people in the northeast impacted. The extent of the damage in the northwestern areas is still being assessed.
