National Coordination for Disaster Reduction (Conred) in Guatemala is urging the evacuation of homes with structural damage in Villa Hermosa due to the risk of further rises in the Pinula River. The recent flooding has already affected or exposed 5,277 people. Authorities are currently unable to predict the river’s water level in the coming days, increasing concerns for residents. The National Civil Police and the Army are monitoring the evacuated areas to maintain security. Conred’s request emphasizes the urgent need to prioritize safety amid the unpredictable conditions. The situation remains critical as authorities continue to assess the damage and potential for additional flooding in Villa Hermosa.
