23 Dead as Floods Hit Kenya

At least 23 people were killed after severe flooding swept through the Kenyan capital late Friday following heavy rainfall that inundated large parts of the city.

Police in Nairobi reported that at least 29 people were rescued overnight as emergency teams continued responding to distress calls and conducting search and rescue operations.

Torrential rains triggered flash floods across several areas of the capital, turning major roads into rivers and flooding thousands of homes and businesses.

Authorities said rescue efforts are ongoing as officials assess the full extent of the damage caused by the floods, which have disrupted transportation and daily life across the city.
