Texas Flash Floods: 109 Dead, 160 Still Missing

News summary

At least 109 people have been confirmed dead and more than 160 remain missing after devastating flash floods struck central Texas, particularly Kerr County, over the July Fourth weekend. Among the victims, at least 27 children and counselors from Camp Mystic lost their lives and several remain unaccounted for. The surge in missing persons followed the establishment of a hotline for families to report loved ones, many of whom were unregistered campers along the Guadalupe River. Over 250 responders, supported by aerial resources, continue search and rescue operations, but no survivors have been found since Friday, diminishing hopes. Governor Greg Abbott has pledged to continue efforts until all missing are accounted for, while officials face questions about the adequacy of pre-disaster warnings. President Trump has pledged federal assistance and plans to visit the area as the state's current focus remains on recovery.
