NEW DELHI: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday shared his condolences for the people affected by the deadly floods in Texas, USA.
In a post on X, he wrote, "Deeply saddened to learn about loss of lives, especially children in the devastating floods in Texas. Our condolences to the US Government and the bereaved families."
At least 27 people have died in the floods, including nine children, according to local officials.
Rescue teams were searching for many missing people, including girls from a summer camp, after a strong storm caused a wall of water to rush down the Guadalupe River in Texas Hill Country .
The floodwaters rose 26 feet (around 8 meters) in just 45 minutes early Friday morning, sweeping away houses and cars.
The danger isn’t over yet, as more heavy rain is expected, as reported by Associated Press. Flash flood warnings are still active in parts of central Texas.
City manager Dalton Rice said that 27 people were missing from Camp Mystic , a Christian summer camp for girls. Many others were also unaccounted for in different areas.
Rescue teams are using helicopters, boats, and drones to search for missing people and help those trapped by the floods.
