Kenya is grappling with catastrophic flooding that has claimed at least 62 lives as relentless heavy rains batter the East African nation. Rescue operations struggle to reach isolated communities as roads have transformed into treacherous waterways. The unprecedented rainfall has triggered landslides and caused rivers to burst their banks, sweeping away homes and infrastructure.

In a dramatic overnight rescue in Nairobi, emergency workers saved 11 people trapped in a minibus taxi as rising floodwaters threatened to engulf the vehicle. The passengers clung to hope as water levels rose, with rescue teams battling against the elements to reach them. Meteorological authorities warn the heavy rains will persist, urging residents to remain vigilant and avoid crossing flooded areas.
