An internationally recognised government sits in Tripoli in the west, but Derna is in an area controlled by a rival administration based in Benghazi. Libya has seen more than a decade of conflict and is politically divided. The dams had not been maintained for more than two decades, and the infrastructure was not built to withstand the effects of this week’s floods, Madroud said. Deputy Mayor Ahmed Madroud said the way the city was built put most of the population in the water’s direct path.
The water raced down Wadi Derna from the mountains to the sea. The storm made landfall in Libya a few days later, causing flooding on Sunday in cities along its eastern coast, including Benghazi, Bayda and Derna.ĭerna was the hardest hit after two dams burst upstream from the city, releasing an estimated 30 million cubic metres (39 million cubic yards) of water that tore through the city of about 100,000 inhabitants. It caused strong winds, heavy rains, flooding and deaths there and in Turkey and Bulgaria before crossing the Mediterranean. Storm Daniel formed over Greece on September 4. “The death toll is huge and might reach thousands,” said Tamer Ramadan of the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies.
