Texas Hell: Floods Devour 27 Lives Including 9 Kids, 23 Girls Still Missing!
Texas is in chaos! The floods that slammed the central part of this American state have turned into a full-blown disaster. The death toll has climbed to a horrifying 27, including 9 children! And it gets worse — 23 girls from a private Christian summer camp called Mystic are still missing.
Helicopters in Action, Ropes as the Only Hope
Rescuers had to use helicopters to pull people out of deadly waters. Imagine this scene: kids clutching ropes as they’re airlifted from flooded areas! The rainfall was so massive that the river rose over six meters in less than two hours. This isn’t just rain — it’s nature’s war on life.
State of Emergency and Political Reactions
Texas Governor Greg Abbott didn’t waste time and declared a state of emergency in multiple counties including Bandera, Comal, Concho, Gillespie, Kendall, Kerr, Kimble, Llano, Mason, McCulloch, Menard, Reeves, San Saba, and Tom Green. President Donald Trump called the floods “terrible” and promised federal aid, but is that enough for a disaster of this scale?
Children’s Camp at the Heart of the Tragedy
The biggest tragedy happened at the Hart Hills children’s camp in Kerr County, where among the dead is the camp’s director and co-owner, Jane Regsdale. More than 20 girls who were at the camp are missing, and the search continues. It’s heartbreaking and reminds us how merciless nature can be.
What’s Next?
As the death toll rises and waters keep flooding, Texans wonder how they’ll recover from this disaster. Is the state prepared for such natural calamities? Are the protective measures enough? And how many more lives will be lost before something changes?
