Additional Information / Shotlist It’s been 50 days since the violent flash floods stroked areas along Kashkan River, in Lorestan province in South-West Iran. In Pole Dokhtar town, the severely affected neighborhood located on the right side of the river starts to live again. Most of sludge and rubble have been cleaned out while reconstruction of few houses and shops are beginning in this devastated environment. General relief efforts are ongoing and MSF is providing assistance to the affected population in five villages up north the city, with the collaboration of the Ministry of Health.
