Five Killed in Torrential Tunisia Rains

Flash floods in Tunisia's Cap Bon peninsula have killed at least five people, authorities said on Sunday, 23 September, as surging waters caused by heavy rains carried away homes, cars and chunks of road.

Saturday’s storm caused water levels in some areas to rise as much as 1.7 metres (5.6 feet), as bridges and roads were damaged in record rains that dropped the equivalent of nearly six months of average precipitation.
