Severe flooding hits eastern and southern Mexico
Weeks of heavy rain have brought widespread flooding to large areas of eastern and southern Mexico.
Among the most severely affected areas is Tlacotalpan, a colonial-era town declared a world heritage site.

The torrential rains and subsequent flooding have also affected the states of Oaxaca, Tabasco and Chiapas.
