Kenya is facing a heartbreaking crisis 
as heavy rains and devastating floods sweep across the nation, claiming over 90 lives.
The authorities warned on Sunday of more potential deaths and destruction after days of relentless downpours 
. The floods have wreaked havoc, sweeping away homes 
, schools 
, and businesses 
, leaving communities in shock and mourning.
\"We've recovered at least 11 new bodies from different locations last night,\" said Inspector General of Police Japhet Koome. \"Our teams are working tirelessly to support affected areas and guide motorists and pedestrians away from danger.\"
The situation is dire, with fears that the death toll could rise as many bodies are still missing. On Friday, a tragic incident in Sultan Hamud, Makueni County, saw a truck swept away by raging waters, resulting in the loss of nine lives, including six women and three men.
Humanitarian organizations report that some people seeking shelter under trees were struck by lightning
