Description
In some districts of N'Djamena, the capital of Chad, residents fill sandbags with earth as they attempt to slow flooding caused by torrential rains and the rising waters of the Chari River, which cuts through the city.
Punishing rains have killed 576 people and affected more than 1.9 million in Chad since July, according to the United Nations, a devastating blow for one of the world's poorest countries. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
