Derna, the Libyan port city, has been struck by a catastrophe of unparalleled proportions. Over the weekend, two dams burst, leading to a torrential flood that has left entire neighbourhoods in ruins and a staggering number of lives lost. The situation is "disastrous beyond comprehension," and Libya urgently needs your help.

As of now, the confirmed death toll has tragically exceeded 5,300, and it continues to climb as the true scope of this disaster unfolds. Moreover, at least 10,000 people are still missing, according to the Red Cross and local officials. Families are torn apart, homes have been washed away, and the city of Derna lies in ruins.
