At least 8,000 people have died, and many thousands of others are missing, after heavy rains in Libya from Storm Daniel led to severe flooding over the weekend.Â
Flooding in the eastern part of the country was already dire when the situation was made much worse: two dams near the city of Derna collapsed. Water swept through the city and caused further devastation.
