The death toll from flood-related incidents in Kenya has crossed 200 since March, the interior ministry said, as a cyclone barrelled towards the Tanzanian coast. Some 210 people have died in Kenya “due to severe weather conditions,” the interior ministry said in a statement on Friday, with 22 killed in the past 24 hours. More than 165,000 people had been uprooted from their home, it added and 90 others missing, raising fears that the toll could rise higher.
