From 29 April 2024 through to May 2024,[4] it resulted in over 150 fatalities,[1] widespread landslides, and a dam collapse. It is considered the country's worst flooding in over 80 years.[4]
The floods marked the fourth such environmental disaster in Brazil in the same solar year, following similar calamities that killed 75 people in July, September, and November 2023.[5][6]
