Brazil floods displace 150,000, scores dead or missing
Rescuers have rushed to evacuate people stranded by devastating floods across the southern Brazilian state of Rio Grande do Sul with at least 90 dead, thousands left homeless and desperate survivors seeking food and basic supplies.
On the outskirts of Eldorado do Sul, 17km from the state capital of Porto Alegre, many people were sleeping on the roadside and told Reuters they were going hungry. Entire families were leaving on foot, carrying belongings in backpacks and shopping carts.
