TL;DR Summary

At least 10,000 people are feared missing in Libya after floods caused by a massive storm devastated the eastern city of Derna, wiping out as much as a quarter of the city. Over 1,000 bodies have already been recovered, and officials expect the death toll to rise significantly. The storm, named Storm Daniel, caused dams to burst, buildings to be swept away, and widespread destruction throughout the city. The number of missing people is estimated to be around 10,000, and the total death toll across the country is expected to exceed 2,500. International aid and assistance are being mobilized to provide relief to the affected areas.
