At least two children were killed by flash floods on Monday in Yemen’s eastern Maarib province, according to witnesses, reports.
The flash floods were reportedly caused by unusually heavy rainfall in a number of Maarib’s southern districts.
The flooding has halted traffic on the main highway linking Maarib to the nearby Al-Bayda province, witnesses said.
One vehicle carrying three children and their parents were reportedly washed away by the flooding, leaving two of the children dead and the third unaccounted for.
