More than 120 dead across southeastern US in aftermath of Hurricane Helene
At least 121 people have been killed across a wide swath of the southeastern US after torrential rains and flooding brought by Hurricane Helene downed power and communication lines, blocked roads, and caused supply shortages. Officials said the death toll could rise into the hundreds, given that 600 are currently unaccounted for as rescuers work to bring basic supplies to isolated areas devastated by the hurricane.
