Bukhara experienced heavy rain and a windstorm on April 27 that caused one death and approximately 30 injured. The storm also caused a disruption of energy to over 138,000 households.

The district of Syrdanya experienced a dam break on May 1, causing three deaths, 56 injured, and approximately 70,000 citizens evacuated from their homes.

Locals are claiming this is the largest natural disaster in Uzbekistan since the 1966 earthquake that leveled most of Tashkent.
