Weeks of heavy rains and flooding have now killed 108 people in Kenya, the National Police Service said on Saturday in an updated death toll.
Flash floods, which began on the evening of March 6, have caused widespread destruction in the East African nation, sweeping away dozens of vehicles, disrupting air travel, and damaging power infrastructure, News.Az reports, citing Reuters.
Over 2,700 families have been displaced across the country, authorities said on Friday.
While the intensity of rainfall has eased in some areas, police cautioned that the risk of flooding persists due to overflowing drainage systems and waterlogged ground.
