2025 Botswana floods

The 2025 Botswana floods were caused by several days of severe rainfall across the country, including Ghanzi, Gaborone and Francistown among other regions. The severe flooding lead to widespread closure of roads, as well as the Botswana government closing all schools from the 19th to 24 February.

Overflowing rivers and dams caused extensive infrastructure damage, displaced residents, and resulted in loss of life.
