Amazon Drought
Manaus, 3rd Oct 2023 - As the capital of the Amazon, the municipality of Manaus covers an area equivalent to that of the entire state of Qatar. With the water receding, dozens of riverside communities have become isolated, cut off from the rest of the municipality and the state. For many of these communities, the only means of transportation is by river, and with wells drying up, humanitarian aid provided by government agencies and independent organizations becomes essential.
