Floods and landslides across Kenya have killed 181 people since March, with hundreds of thousands forced to leave their homes, the government and Red Cross said on Wednesday, as dozens more were killed in neighbouring Tanzania and Burundi.
In the central Kenyan town on Mai Mahiu, where at least 48 died in flash floods on Monday, two bodies were recovered from the debris on Wednesday, Kenya Red Cross South Rift Regional Manager Felix Maiyo said. In Kitengela, 33 km from Nairobi, Kenya Red Cross workers were helping to rescue residents whose homes were marooned by flood waters.
Kenya’s national highways authority said it had closed a section of a highway leading to the city and at least three other roads across the country due to flooding and debris.
