Dangerous reptiles such as snakes and crocodiles have surfaced in several human habitats in the Eastern Province, since the flood waters in the region began to recede, sources said.

The civilians who had left their home and become internally displaced due to the recent floods in the East are now facing the danger of deadly reptiles, which are found in the surrounding areas of their homes, sources said.
