More than 300 dead after flooding in South Africa – BBC News
The South African government has declared a state of disaster in the South African province of KwaZulu-Natal which includes the city of Durban.
Some areas in the province have seen months worth of rain fall in one day leaving more than 300 dead. Officials have called it “one of the worst weather storms in the history of our country”.
Mudslides have trapped people under buildings and officials have said their resources to cope with the rescue effort have been stretched.

Counter terrorism police are now leading the investigation into the death of former Conservative minister Ann Widdecombe, after “new information and evidence has come to light”, Counter Terrorism Policing South East (CTPSE) has said.
“The police are pursuing multiple lines of enquiry to establish the motivation for this attack. I will be updating the House further this afternoon,” Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood said.
A 28-year-old white British man from Rotherham, South Yorkshire, was originally arrested on suspicion of murder on Saturday but has now been re-arrested “on suspicion of commission, preparation or instigation of acts of terrorism”, CTPSE said.
Police said the “dynamic and complex investigation” had led to the new arrest.
On Thursday, 78-year-old Widdecombe was found dead at her home in Haytor, Devon, having sustained serious injuries.

Three members of his government, including Home Office minister Jess Phillips, have resigned, whilst scores of Labour MPs are calling for him to quit following a disastrous set of elections for the party last week.
Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood is among a number of cabinet ministers urging the prime minister to set out a departure timetable.
Sir Keir said he does not intend to quit and threw down the gauntlet to potential rivals to formally challenge him as Labour leader.
No MP has yet launched a formal bid to challenge him, which requires the backing of 81 colleagues or 20% of Labour MPs, according to party rules.

The US said it has hit “dozens” of Iranian military targets in overnight attacks, in response to Iran hitting commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz.
The military said it struck “air-defense systems, coastal radar sites, missile and drone capabilities, and small boats”, using aircraft, ships, and drones – including “one-way attack sea drones for the first time”.
“The Strait of Hormuz is a vital maritime corridor for global trade,” the US military said. “Iran does not control it”.
In response, Iran said it targeted US bases in Jordan, Bahrain, and Kuwait and also radar systems in Oman.

President Donald Trump has said the US is reinstating a naval blockade of Iranian ports and will impose a 20% charge on all cargo shipped through the Strait of Hormuz following days of escalating strikes between the two countries.
He said this would stop “Iran’s ships or customers” from entering or leaving the key oil shipping route, but “all other countries will have fair and open use of the Strait”.
Iran’s foreign minister later said whoever provides safe passage “should be compensated for this service”, but Iran would remain the strait’s “GUARDIAN” – using Trump’s word.
Tehran and Washington clashed over the strait’s control after exchanging strikes in the region overnight and on Monday.
The US said it carried out strikes against military targets in Iran, targeting air defence systems, coastal radars, and missile and drone sites. Iran said it responded by striking US military bases in Kuwait, Jordan and Bahrain, and radars in Oman.

The disasters all over the world especially this pandemic remind us there’s a true God. The unmeasurable power of our Almighty Father the creator of heaven and earth is eternal. We must remember that during the time of Noah the sinner people were punished by God through the great flood in the entire world but give us another chance to live on earth to know where is the right place for us either eternal punishment or the Eternal life. Jesus promised us the Eternal Life. We humans do not know about Jesus who he really is. Before God Almighty Father created the earth, Jesus already exists. Jesus is already a Holy spirit before God created all the things on earth. Jesus is with His Almighty Father during God created the world. Genesis 1:26 "Then God said, “Let us make mankind in our image, in our likeness, so that they may rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky, over the livestock and all the wild animals, and overall the creatures that move along the ground.” The Almighty God loves the people so much, that He sacrificed His begotten Son Jesus Christ to save us. God gives us another chance to be forgiven through His beloved Son Jesus Christ. Before Jesus came to earth, the Almighty God is preparing a human body for Jesus to enter and that is in the womb of Mary. The words of his Father God are in Jesus Christ, John 1:14 "The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the one and only Son, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth." Jesus was sent down to earth to preach and to save the sinners. John 6:38 "For I have come down from heaven not to do my will but to do the will of him who sent me." We must accept that we are all sinners and we must repent. Accept Jesus Christ with all our hearts. Accept Jesus as our savior, our King, and our loving God. Jesus said in John 14:6 "“I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me." We have no right to see the Almighty Father. Only Jesus has the right and sits at the right hand of God the Father. Jesus said to His Father God in John 17:24"Father, I want those you have given me to be with me where I am, and to see my glory, the glory you have given me because you loved me before the creation of the world." Jesus is our hope to be forgiven, He is the way and the truth and the LIFE. 1 John 2:25" And this is what he promised us—ETERNAL LIFE." The eternal punishment, the fallen angels will be punished by fire along with the unforgiveness of the wicked. We are all repeatedly violating the ten commandments of God and We have sinned in thought, word, and deed. We must repent of our sins. God loves us very much. God wants us to be part of His gift the Eternal Life.

Are these the people that were killing other Africans a couple of years ago because they were accusing them of stealing their jobs? Some already forgot but us who lost loved ones in that non sense did not. Karma does exist. We will still pray God to give us the power to forget and also help our brothers and sisters South Africains to make it through this calamity.

And the South African government are where? ASSESSING? once again as happened during the chaotic looting in July 2021, the government are slow to react and the Neighborhood Watches together with Charitable organizations have stepped up , they are the ones putting themselves out there risking their lives trying to save the lives of community members and trying to recover what they can. LIP SERVICE ONCE AGAIN ANC.

Unfortunately, the cataclysms will only increase. Scientists explain the reasons in the Global Crisis conference. This already concerns everyone as well as in the Global Crisis conference. Time for Truth. The worst thing is that people are suffering. There is an international project Creative Society. Thanks to it humanity will be able to survive.
