Libya floods aftermath: Mobile labs to identify the dead
In Libya's eastern city of Derna, divers are continuing the grim task of recovering more bodies swept away by flash floods into the Mediterranean sea.
Libya's General Authority for the Search and Identification of Missing Persons (GASIMP) says a genetic mapping fact sheet must be drawn up for the families of the victims to facilitate the process of identifying bodies.
More than 66 bodies were recovered on Thursday alone. Thousands of people were killed after flash floods caused two dams to collapse, washing away homes and neighbourhoods.
