US space technology company Planet has released satellite photos showing the aftermath of a devastating flood in Derna, Libya’s eastern region. The flood, which has resulted in the deaths of 6,000 people and the disappearance of 10,000 others, was caused by heavy rainfall and the failure of two dams. The images, captured on September 2 and September 12, vividly depict the extensive destruction in the city of Derna caused by the catastrophic flood. Search and rescue operations are ongoing in the wake of this tragic disaster.
