Kerala is witnessing severe rain-related disruptions as heavy rainfall triggers landslides and flash floods across several districts. In Idukki, a deadly landslide struck Kottakamboor in Vattavada, killing two people and seriously injuring another. Visuals from the site show the aftermath as rescue teams and local residents work around the debris.  

Kerala is battling a rapidly worsening flood disaster as relentless monsoon rains continue to lash the state, claiming 15 lives and forcing more than 7,600 people to take shelter in relief camps. Torrential rainfall has inundated towns, triggered landslides and damaged homes, leaving thousands displaced as authorities race to prevent the humanitarian crisis from escalating further. According to officials, 273 relief camps have been set up across Kerala, providing food, drinking water, medical assistance and emergency shelter to affected families. The government has also stepped up health surveillance and epidemic prevention measures to minimise the risk of disease outbreaks in flood-hit regions. Malappuram has reported the highest number of fatalities so far, while search and rescue operations continue for those still missing. Pathanamthitta has emerged as one of the worst-affected districts in terms of relief operations, with the largest number of camps established to accommodate displaced residents. WATCH
