Torrential rain has severely impacted several states in Mexico over the past week, with devastating flooding resulting in 64 fatalities and 65 individuals reported missing in central and eastern regions. Rescue operations are underway as many small communities remain cut off from assistance. Approximately 10,000 military personnel, along with civilian teams, have been deployed to address the emergency, utilizing helicopters to deliver food and water to around 200 inaccessible areas and evacuate those in need of medical attention. President Claudia Sheinbaum confirmed that sufficient resources are being allocated for the ongoing crisis. The heavy rainfall, particularly notable in Veracruz state where over 62 centimeters (24.7 inches) fell between October 6 and 9, has been linked to the effects of two tropical systems—Hurricane Priscilla and Tropical Storm Raymond.
