As of 6 November, the severe flooding has displaced over 129,000 people in 15 different sites across the capital N Djamena, where the water level of the Chari River dropped slightly to an 8 metres height on 5 November, although several areas in the capital remain at risk. Across the country, over a million people in 18 of the 23 provinces have been affected in a way not seen in decades. Authorities and humanitarian organisations are increasingly concerned about the Lac province where forced displacements are expected to surpass those in the capital.
