 At least 24 killed by flooding, landslides after heavy rains in Ivory Coast

The flooding and landslides have also caused “significant” damage across the city, flooding houses and roads, said the Ivory Coast National Office for Civil Protection. At least 271 people who were trapped after the rains have been successfully rescued, it said.


Officials last year demolished houses built along a lagoon in Abidjan as a measure to prevent deadly floods.
