Heavy rainfall continues to affect most of Kenya and the wider Horn of Africa region, causing rivers to overflow, floods, flash floods and triggering landslides that have resulted in more casualties and widespread damage.
36 counties are affected (out of 47 throughout the whole Kenya) whereas the worst affected are the eastern and north-eastern ones, bordering with Somalia and Ethiopia, respectively.
The Kenya Red Cross Society (KRCS), as of 24 November, a total of 71 fatalities, over 45,000 displaced and a total of nearly 95,800 affected families throughout Kenya. In addition, KRCS also reports thousands of destroyed houses and several destroyed and flooded schools and hospitals across the affected counties.
Over the next 96 hours, more heavy rainfall with locally very heavy rainfall is forecast over most of the country, including the already affected area.
