ADDIS ABABA, Ethiopia (AP) - The death toll from Ethiopia's worst ever flash floods climbed to 250 Thursday and was expected to rise as crews searched for more bodies, authorities said.
Six days after a river burst its banks following torrential rains more than 10,000 people were still homeless and 300 remained missing.
The search from the flooding that hit Dire Dawa, about 310 miles east of the capital, Addis Ababa, has stretched for nearly 20 miles along the river.
