Bangladesh Relocates Millions as Cyclone Roanu Approaches
Bangladesh is relocating around two million people from its coastal areas ahead of cyclone Roanu’s likely landfall on Saturday evening, officials said on Friday, an event that has also kept authorities in neighbouring India and Myanmar on edge.
The cyclonic storm brought about heavy rains this week in Sri Lanka, triggering two landslides that were feared to have killed around 150 people and forced more than 223,000 persons from their homes.
