Libya floods: Flooded city buries its dead in mass graves.

Africa News
Bodies recovered from a devastating flood which wiped out parts of the port city of Derna in eastern Libya have been buried in mass graves. At least 2,300 people died when a tsunami-like river of floodwater swept through Derna on Sunday after a dam burst during Storm Daniel. A mechanical digger worked in a cemetery where victims wrapped in body bags and blankets were buried together. With 10,000 people reported missing, the death toll is expected to rise.

10,000 missing after devastating floods in Libya – IFRC

Africa News
Derna is one of the hardest hit places. Around 10,000 people are thought to be missing following major floods in Libya according to an official from the International Federation of the Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC). "We can confirm from our independent sources of information that the number of missing people is hitting 10,000 so far," said Tamer Ramadan, the head of the IFRC delegation in Libya.

The IFRC could soon launch an appeal for emergency funding to support Libya's flood...

Morocco earthquake: ‘We need help from whomever will give it’

Morocco earthquake: ‘We need help from whomever will give it’

Africa News, International
In the tiny village of Algou, high in the Atlas Mountains, screams came from under the rubble in the terrifying moments after the earthquake. But as the hours passed and with no specialist rescue teams appearing to assist the desperate efforts of the villagers, the screams turned to silence. Three days on, the Spanish firefighters who were the first professional teams to reach the devastated community hoped time had not run out. As they briskly picked their way through caved-in streets and collapsed archways their experience told them there was, however, no hope. The grim reality was reinforced by the reaction of their dogs. Igor and Teddy had been trained to bark when they found signs of life. The silence was deafening. “There is nothing we can do here,” said Juan Lopez,...
