Libya flood disaster displaced over 43,000 people: IOM

More than 43,000 people have been displaced by Libya’s floods that killed thousands in the worst-hit city of Derna, the International Organization for Migration said Thursday. “An estimated 43,059 individuals have been displaced by the floods in northeastern Libya,” the IOM said, adding that a “lack of water supply is reportedly driving many displaced out of Derna” to other areas. bur-ezz/ila/jsa/fz
