Sana, Yemen : Flooding caused by a tropical storm has killed 90 people and displaced 20,000 others in southern Yemen, police and the World Food Program said Monday.
The WFP, which said 20,000 people were displaced, said it has been difficult to get aid to hard-hit Hadramut province because many roads were destroyed by floodwaters after Thursday’s storm.
A police official said 90 people died and 24 farms were wrecked, foreign news agencies reported.
President Ali Abdullah Saleh called on Yemenis and non-governmental organizations to help flood victims by donating money and other aid.
