Venezuela - Officials in the state of Aragua in north-central Venezuela reported that at least 22 people have died and 52 were missing after flash floods in the town of Tejerias. Torrential rain fell on steep slopes surrounding Tejerias in Santos Michelena municipality, late on 08 October 2022, causing raging flood waters and debris to flow through streets. The force of the floods caused catastrophic damage, destroying homes and filling streets with mud, boulders, trees and other debris. Power and water infrastructure has been severely impacted, and many of the town’s 80,000 residents were left without power or water. As many as 52 people are thought to be missing and a team of over 1,000 military, fire, police and rescue personnel including special units using drones and sniffer dogs are searching for survivors.
