Natural Disaster News: What’s Happening Across Africa Right Now

If you live in or follow African headlines, you know that natural disasters can strike without warning. From sudden floods in the Sahel to powerful quakes near the Rift Valley, staying informed can make a big difference. This page pulls together the most recent reports, safety advice, and on‑the‑ground stories so you’re never caught off guard.

Recent Events You Should Know About

In the past week, heavy rains turned into flash floods in eastern Kenya, forcing thousands to move to temporary shelters. At the same time, a 5.8‑magnitude quake rattled parts of Ethiopia’s highlands, shaking homes and disrupting power lines. Down south, wildfires sparked by dry winds have burned large swaths of forest near Cape Town, prompting local firefighters to call for community help.

These events share a common thread: they affect everyday life, from school closures to market disruptions. The good news is that authorities are stepping up with early warning systems and relief teams, but the speed of response often depends on how quickly people get the right information.
