Dear Friend,
On September 10, 2023, amid a powerful rainstorm, two dams in eastern Libya collapsed. The resulting flood virtually erased downtown Derna and likely killed more than 12,000 people.
A coastal city whose history connects back to Ancient Greece was abruptly washed away, with entire families swept into the sea, never to be recovered.
Published today, The Sentry’s new investigative alert sheds light on the corrupt operations that contributed to this disaster. We also reveal the new greed-driven schemes in Derna’s ongoing reconstruction that could lead to yet another catastrophe. |
