Re: It is flooding in north and northeast Brazil
The governor of one of the hardest-hit states, Piaui, has declared an emergency in 19 towns and cities and asked for military assistance to help those stranded by the flooding.
In the state of Maranhao, six people have been killed and two are missing, while several major roads have been flooded, civil defence officials say.
Torrential downpours have also caused rivers to break their banks in the Amazon region.
Forecasters say heavy rains are expected to continue in the north and north-east of Brazil until the middle of the month.
