This new episode of Samri Channel devotes its time to discussing Hurricane Daniel, which struck Libya during the past few hours, causing massive human and material damage.

The episode begins by tracking Storm Daniel since its formation over both Turkey and Greece and then its movement towards the northern coast of eastern Libya, where it rose to the level of a devastating hurricane, severely striking five cities in Libya, the most affected of which was Derna, where official sources in eastern Libya confirmed that 25 percent of the city disappeared under... The surface of the flood waters, and the death toll reached about 5,000 people, with expectations that this number will rise in light of the presence of about 10,000 missing people within the city’s neighborhoods.

The episode attributes the massive destruction that struck Derna specifically to the collapse of the Wadi Derna Dam, which used to store rainwater, a collapse resulting from long neglect of maintaining the dam due to the ongoing armed conflicts in the city and throughout Libya since 2011. The episode refers to the news of Saddam Khalifa Haftar’s candidacy for the Libyan presidency, as proof of the Libyan parties’ insistence on escalation during the coming period, with the promise of more neglect of the country’s infrastructure.
