Libya

In September 2023, Tropical Storm Daniel caused the deadliest flooding in Libya in a century. Two dams collapsed as a result of the storm, resulting in catastrophic flooding that washed away entire neighbourhoods. More than 4 300 people are estimated to have lost their lives and tens of thousands remain missing. In the immediate aftermath of the disaster, we allocated €10,000 worth of material aid from our humanitarian warehouse, which included four high-capacity power generators, pallets of sanitary towels, baby nappies, soap and water flasks, which were much needed on the ground.
