View of the Viru Bridge, which carries the Panamerican Highway between northern Peru and Lima, after it collapsed into the Viru River in the town of Viru due to the intense rains, cutting off supplies to the northern part of the country, on March 19, 2017. The El Nino climate phenomenon is causing muddy rivers to overflow along the entire Peruvian coast, isolating communities and neighbourhoods. Thousands have been affected since January, and 72 people have died. Most cities face water shortages as water lines have been compromised by mud and debris. (Photo by Celso Roldan/AFP Photo)
