00:00Good evening and welcome to a new episode of your show, What's Happening.
00:05Today's Friday, July 25th, September 25th, 2026, and the 14th of Rabi Al-Akhir.
00:15Honestly, since the last episode about Libya, we've seen the extent of the flash floods and widespread flooding that swept
00:22through Libya.
00:23Before we move on and watch these new dangerous clips, let's take a look.
00:28Let me start with this image from satellite imagery just a short while ago.
00:33It's clear that the rain and floods are sweeping across Libya honestly, from the north to the south to the
00:39east.
00:39It's obvious that the situation today was very dangerous in Libya.
00:44There was a heightened state of alert in many Libyan cities, and the army entered several places for evacuation operations.
00:51I imagine this is a day that Libya will never forget easily.
00:57But, new clips have just started to appear.
01:02I mean, they started to be published.
01:04Let me go and see this new clip.
01:06Here it is.
01:07It's documenting it for me.
01:10This is the moment, the very first moment, of the thunderstorm's arrival.
01:14Honestly, it was a thunderstorm with strong, sand-laden winds that hit specifically.
01:21We're watching this video from the city of Sukhna.
01:24Sukhna is located in the Jufra region.
01:27I believe the city of Sukhna is in the Jufra region today.
01:31But, let me go and see another clip, another video, showing the impact of the storm, the entry of the
01:39storm, which was honestly very strong inside the city of Sukhna.
01:44We were watching it from a distance.
01:45Now, let's see how it entered the city of Sukhna.
01:50Honestly, this clip shows the extent of the destruction and the damage caused by the storm, the extremely strong winds,
02:00and the damage it did to property in the city.
02:04Well, it can be one of the most dangerous clips that also leaks about what the floods caused.
02:12Let me find out.
02:13This clip documented the massive damage in the city of Bani Wali, specifically south of the city of Bani Wali.
02:22The very strong floods affected the roads, affected the highways, destroyed and cut off the highways because the floodwaters simply
02:33undermined the foundations of the roads, swept away the soil and the embankments.
02:38Yes, to be precise, the ones beneath the asphalt layer.
02:44So, the road was cut off in more than one place.
02:47And this is not something we are only seeing in the south of Bani Wali city, but in many places.
02:52And all of these are extensive damage and major losses.
02:55I expect, as we said at the beginning, this is a day that Libya will not forget easily.
03:00Honestly, it was a tough day.
03:02Little by little, we'll receive more footage and new statistics.
03:05This is Ahmed Al-Daram, the host of What's Happening.
03:10Take care.
