Severe flooding has displaced hundreds of thousands of people across East Africa, with Kenya particularly hard-hit. Rescue workers and authorities are preparing for further devastation as the death toll reaches 60. Senator Edwin Sifuna, representing Nairobi County, expressed deep concern about the situation, attributing the floods to torrential rains associated with the El Niño weather phenomenon. He highlighted the imminent threat of heavier rains in the coming days, estimating that around 100,000 individuals have already been displaced. Michael Aiyabei, head of disaster risk management, echoed these concerns, emphasizing the need for readiness amidst the worsening conditions. The impact of the floods extends beyond Kenya, with at least 155 fatalities reported in neighbouring Tanzania and nearly 100,000 people displaced in Burundi.
