אסונות · Galápagos floodsSanta Cruz Galapagos flooding: One dead as rescuers evacuate familiesנכתב 31 באוקטובר 2026 בשעה 20:46 UTCצפייהתמליל0:07Flooding on Santa Cruz has killed one person and forced families from their homes.0:11Roads and a health center have flooded, complicating the response across residential0:15communities in Ecuador's Galapagos.0:17How much help has reached displaced families, and what still stands in the way.0:20ECU911 confirmed one death in Bella Vista.0:24The Cantonal Emergency Committee preliminarily listed two people as missing in0:27Divino Neo.0:28Emergency officials haven't released the dead person's identity or cause of death.0:32Flooded roads disrupted travel between Porto Ayora and Bella Vista, a corridor0:36needed by rescuers and evacuees.0:38Overflow also inundated the Baltra Road.0:40The island's emergency reaches beyond flooded homes to the routes that connect0:44residents with help.0:45Heavy rain fell through the afternoon and night of October30,2026.0:49The downpour lasted more than ten hours and overwhelmed natural drainage channels.0:53Flooding affected Bella Vista, Santa Rosa, Aguacatel, Miramar, Divinonia, and La0:58Cascada.0:59Water remained in La Cascada the following morning.1:02One house collapsed in Miramar.1:04Utility poles fell, and electricity supplies were disrupted in the island's1:07highlands.1:08Floodwater entered homes and damaged roads.1:11The single documented collapse gives only part of the picture of damage to housing.1:15Response teams also worked in El Basqui Bella Vista's Central Park in Toms de1:18Berlanga.1:19The emergency committee asked residents to avoid traveling between Porto Ayora and1:23Bella Vista, leave roads clear for emergency vehicles, and call ECU911 for1:28emergencies rather than general inquiries.1:30Santa Cruz's Cantonal Emergency Committee declared an emergency.1:33Mayor Fanny Aribi Alpes chairs it and urged residents to follow official1:37instructions.1:38At the national level, risk management secretary Carolina Lozano announced one1:42thousand humanitarian assistance kits for the response.1:44About eighty people initially left their homes for the Santa Cruz Sports Coliseum on1:48October thirty.1:49Two temporary shelters were subsequently activated, with room for five hundred1:53people between them.1:54That capacity tells us how many they could accommodate, while later estimates1:58describe a much wider accommodation effort.2:00Later estimates put one hundred people at a colosseum, sixty, five at a church, and2:05about seven hundred in host homes.2:07Their timing and possible overlap remain unclear, so adding them together wouldn't2:11give a reliable current evacuation count.2:13A broader estimate put the number affected at more than eight hundred.2:16That includes a wider group than people who evacuated or needed shelter.2:20The original eighty remains a starting figure from October thirty, while families'2:24accommodation needs continued to be assessed.2:26The Santa Cruz Health Center flooded and went out of service.2:29The health ministry sent an initial team of thirteen staff.2:31Teams provided more than fifty-five shelter consultations and referred three2:35patients to hospital rep Blica del Ecuador.2:38Those consultations covered people seeking care at the shelter.2:41Officials haven't given an injury total.2:43Firefighters, armed forces, and national police joined Galpagos National Park2:47personnel in the response.2:49ECU911 coordinated teams from its Gal, Pagos operations room, and used surveillance2:54cameras to guide rescuers.2:56Gal, Pagos National Park personnel deployed three zodiac boats in La Cascada to help3:00residents evacuate.3:01The Sports Coliseum served as a reception point.3:04The governing council's enclosed Sports Coliseum also received donated food.3:08Basic necessities and emergency supplies.3:10The planned transfer totals two thousand and fifty kits.3:13That includes eight hundred first response kits, two hundred and fifty sleeping3:17kits, and one thousand humanitarian assistance kits.3:20Delivery and household distribution haven't been confirmed.3:23Lozano's announcement gave no arrival date or contents for the humanitarian kits.3:27Machinery was expected to reopen road passage, and commercial flights at Baltra were3:31expected to restart on October thirty-one.3:33Actual restoration of those transport links hasn't been confirmed.3:36Whether the flooded health center has reopened also remains unclear.3:40Officials haven't announced what happened to the two people preliminarily reported3:43missing in Davino Neo.קריאת הכתבהציר הזמן של הסיפורHeyDexמי דיווח על מהנקודות שדיווח עליהן יותר מכלי תקשורת אחדDeath reported in
