"Health Risks of Mass Burials in Libya Highlighted by Aid Groups"

Aid groups are urging authorities in Libya to stop burying flood victims in mass graves due to potential health risks, as the coastal city of Derna continues to search for bodies almost a week after a devastating flood killed over 11,000 people. The collapse of two dams after extreme rainfall resulted in thousands of residents being washed out to sea, with 10,000 people still missing. The World Health Organization (WHO) has highlighted the spread of waterborne diseases and urged authorities to take precautions. Libya has launched a probe into the collapse of the dams, with reports suggesting they had cracks dating back to 1998.
