RIYADH: Saudi Arabia dispatched its second relief plane from King Khalid International Airport on Sunday carrying 40 tons of food aid for those grappling with the aftermath of devastating floods that have wreaked havoc in the nation.
A specialized team from the center has been entrusted with the task of overseeing the distribution of aid in collaboration with the Libyan Red Crescent, ensuring that the relief reaches those in need.
Heavy rains caused by Mediterranean storm Daniel caused deadly flooding across eastern Libya last weekend. The floods overwhelmed two dams, sending a wall of water several meters (yards) high through the center of Derna, destroying entire neighborhoods and sweeping people out to sea.
More than 10,000 are missing, according to the Libyan Red Crescent. Six days on, searchers are still digging through mud and hollowed-out buildings, looking for bodies and possible survivors. The Red Crescent has confirmed 11,300 deaths so far.
