The death toll from flooding in Bangladesh rose to 71 on Tuesday, with millions stranded in devastated areas and fears growing of waterborne diseases as the floods recede.
Floods caused by monsoon rains and rising river levels have caused widespread devastation over the past two weeks, affecting five million people.
About 500 medical teams helped provide treatment, while the army, air force, navy and border guards helped in relief efforts.
