More than 2,000 people have died, while 5,000 to 6,000 were missing due to floods in the city of Derna, an eastern Libyan military spokesperson has said. Hamad, the east’s self-proclaimed premier, earlier said that at least 2,000 people were feared dead in the city. It is so far unclear where the number is coming from. Medics and aid organisations have not yet released any death toll figures.
