Myanmar flash floods kill more than 100

Published Updated

More than 100 people were killed in flash floods caused by heavy storms in central Myanmar this week, an official in the military-dominated country said on Sunday. "So far, 35 dead bodies were found out of 106 missing people. The other 71 people are also believed to have been killed in the floods," a government official who did not want to be named told AFP.
"We haven't found their bodies yet and are still searching."
He added that more than 2,000 houses were swept away by the mass of water that hit four towns in the Magway region on Thursday and Friday, and some 6,000 homes were still flooded.
