The recent heavy rains in southern Yemen have caused widespread flooding in Taiz, putting many lives at risk. In a recent incident, a little girl was swept away by the raging flood waters, but was rescued at the last minute by a quick-thinking individual. The flood waters dragged parked vehicles in the city, and caused flooding in many homes and businesses. The El-Manakh district of Taiz was hit particularly hard, with landslides causing damage to surrounding houses.
No casualties or injuries have been reported in the flood. However.
