Fiji declares a state of disaster over severe flooding

Officials say that at least 3,500 people are now in temporary shelters.

The state of disaster has been declared in the western regions of Fiji's largest island of Viti Levu, where the flooding impact is worst.

The rains, which started last weekend, inundated roads and cut water and power supplies to some communities.
