Khulna, July 9 -- Continuous rainfall for the past few days has left parts of Khulna city, its suburbs and adjacent upazilas near the Sundarbans submersed.

Several areas, including Royal Mor, Tutpara, Mistripara, Ahsan Ahmed Road, Boyra, Mujgunni, Sonadanga, and Fulbarigate went under water in the city.

Rains entered the houses of the low-lying areas of the city, causing suffering of residents.

Fish enclosures, ponds, and croplands were flooded and residents were facing an acute shortage of drinking water.

On the other hand, the situation is worse in Paikgachha and Koyra upazilas as most areas were submerged there following the heavy downpours.
