India’s southern state of Kerala suffered its worst monsoon flooding in a century, with more than one million people displaced, and more than 400 reported deaths in the past two weeks. Aid agencies and government groups had set up more than 4,000 relief camps, while rescue personnel made their way to submerged villages in helicopters and boats, bringing supplies, and evacuating those they can find. Weeks of heavy rainfall had caused dams to open their floodgates, triggered landslides in the mountains, and swamped the coastal regions of Kerala.
