NAIROBI, 2nd May, 2024 (WAM) -- Floods and landslides across Kenya have killed 181 people since March, with hundreds of thousands forced to leave their homes, Reuters reported, citing the government and Red Cross on Wednesday.
Dozens more were killed in neighbouring Tanzania and Burundi, Reuters added.
Torrential rain and floods have destroyed homes, roads, bridges and other infrastructure across the region. The death toll in Kenya exceeds that from floods triggered by the El Nino weather phenomenon late last year.
