| An unspecified number of passengers are missing after the boat they were travelling in capsized in Kenya's north-eastern area of Madogo. | |
| The passengers were crossing a flooded area in Kona Punda heading to the neighbouring Garissa town when the incident happened on Sunday evening. | |
| Ali Roba, the senator of the neighbouring Mandera county, said 28 people died in the incident. Authorities are, however, yet to give the confirmed death toll. | |
| About 23 people have been rescued and are currently receiving care at a local hospital, the Kenya Red Cross said. | |
| It is unclear how many people were on board at the time of the incident. But the Kenya Red Cross said the boat was carrying a "large number of people". | |
| Police said they were working with the rescue teams to search for missing victims. | |
| Flooding in the area is caused by the overflowing of dams upstream, local media reported. | |
