Kentucky Floods/ Searches for victims could last weeks
Flooding in Kentucky

Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear said Saturday that it could take several weeks to find more possible victims of the flash floods that hit the Appalachia region.

So far the number of dead has increased to 25 people. Mr. Beshear warned that the death toll could rise even further.

The authorities announced large amounts of rain in the following day.

Rescue teams are engaged in the areas hit hard by the floods, some of them among the poorest in the United States, VOA reports.

These are the worst floods to hit parts of the US this summer, including in St. Louis, Missouri earlier this week and again on Friday. Scientists say climate change is making weather-related disasters more common.
