  • At least five people were killed and more than 11 were rescued in Kenya on Friday after a truck carrying a large group of people tipped over in raging floodwaters.
    The truck driver was reportedly attempting to help evacuees cross a river when the vehicle got stuck and toppled over.
    Local authorities said a majority of passengers were swept away and fear there may be more casualties as crews continue to search.
    Government officials have reported at least 70 deaths in Kenya in the last month due to severe weather.

    Judging by the size and number of culverts under the road, they expect to have high water volumes in the area.

    People build dams to help solve this problem. Store water, grow food.

      @markskids2030 So the European colonizers, specifically the British are not human. Many ills can be traced back to the BRITISH….from Pakistan to Palestine….
      If the UN further hampers aid, by your own word, they are not human

    The long rain season (March to May) in that region always brings flooding.
