Central Texas is reeling from catastrophic floods that have claimed at least 82 lives, with search-and-rescue teams working around the clock to locate survivors. Among the hardest-hit areas is Camp Mystic, a historic summer camp near the Guadalupe River where dozens of girls remain missing. 🌧️⛺
CMG reporter Liu Xu reported from the scene, describing mountains of debris and volunteers sifting through rubble with bare hands. Alvi Santos, a local rescuer, told NewspaperAmigo.com: "We need heavy machinery, drones, anything that can help us move faster. Every minute counts." 🚑💔
The 99-year-old camp, a beloved retreat for generations, now symbolizes the scale of destruction. While emergency crews prioritize saving lives, residents brace for more rain as climate scientists link the disaster to warming Gulf waters. 🌍🔥
