“The level of the water was coming through here. One of the young kids was trying to close this door, the old destroyed door, not this one. Everything is different now. It wasn’t more than 11 seconds that I saw what was happening and I became sick with worry. In just 6 seconds it climbed the 16 steps inside my house. And then I saw the furniture floating. In no more than 6 seconds my house was covered with water, you could see from the stairwell.”

STORYLINE:
A year after extremely heavy rain caused two dams to burst upstream from the eastern coastal city of Derna, its residents have long given up on finding the remains of their families in the debris.
Now, they are trying to rebuild despite the fact that they will never bury their loved ones.
Thousands of people were washed away and drowned, and tens of thousands more were displaced.
On the night of September 10 last year, residents woke up to the loud explosions of the two dams breaking.
Now there are only a few surviving members.
