In response to the severe flooding caused by heavy rainfall in July, the President has designated 36 additional areas as special disaster zones. This decision aims to facilitate recovery efforts and provide necessary support to the affected regions.
The flooding primarily impacted agricultural areas, particularly in Hampyeong, South Jeolla Province, where significant damage has been reported. Local authorities are assessing the extent of the destruction and coordinating with national agencies to deliver aid.
The government is expected to allocate resources for rebuilding infrastructure and supporting residents who have faced economic hardships due to the weather-related disaster.
This designation is part of a broader effort to address the ongoing challenges posed by climate-related events and enhance disaster preparedness in vulnerable areas.
