Three people died in floods in Tunisia following heavy rains in the North African country, according to the announcement of the Civil Protection Agency’s spokesperson on Sunday.

Two young men aged 20 and 27 died after their car was washed away by water in the town of Thala and another 24-year-old man was killed near Tunis, according to the spokesperson.

Tunisia is currently experiencing seasonal floods caused by heavy rains, and poor infrastructure, including outdated water drainage systems.

In September 2020, six people, including three children, died when storms accompanied by rain hit homes across the country.
