You Just Never Know

Saudi emergency services have said the toll from floods that tore through the port city of Jeddah this week has risen to 106.

Torrents of water inundated the Red Sea port on Wednesday after Saudi Arabia saw some of the heaviest rainfall in years. Some 1,400 residents had to be rescued.

Many of the victims were drowned or were killed by collapsing bridges and in car crashes.
