Israeli NGO IsraAID is helping teachers in Peru prepare to reopen their schools after more than two weeks of flooding and mudslides that have devastated areas of the country.
The Peruvian government called for international aid to help hundreds of thousands of people displaced by flash floods and landslides, triggered by a sudden and abnormal warming of Pacific waters off Peru. Some 100 people have died, 700,000 are homeless and contaminated water sources are leading to growing fears of an outbreak of disease. The downpours are expected to continue for another two weeks.

The IsraAID mission set off for Peru on Tuesday, made up of five psychosocial experts and Water, Sanitation and Hygiene experts.
Access to the most basic items such as food, safe water and hygiene kits still remains limited for many, and this is the first priority for the team.
