RIYADH: King Salman and Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman sent separate cables of condolence to the head of Libya’s Presidential Council Mohammed Al-Menfi on Tuesday after floods devastated the country.

More than 2,000 people were killed and at least 10,000 were missing in Libya in floods caused by a huge Mediterranean storm that burst dams, swept away buildings and wiped out as much as a quarter of the eastern coastal city of Derna.

The king and crown prince conveyed their condolences to the relatives of the deceased and the people of Libya, Saudi Press Agency reported on Tuesday. They also prayed for the swift recovery of the injured.
