Paraguay Under Water

Paraguay is in a State of Emergency after flooding has forced around 100,000 people to evacuate. It is the worst flooding in decades for the area. In the capital, Asuncion, the water level has reached 26 feet, the record level since 1992. It is due to rain and swelling rivers. The government aid has not been reaching people in time, and people have had to dip into their savings, if they have any. 

There was no official death report, however, the locals have stated that people have been electrocuted and several were killed by falling tress.
