"If they would have been a normally operating meteorological service, they could have issued warnings," World Meteorological Organization (WMO) secretary-general Petteri Taalas said. After two dams failed, whole neighbourhoods were swept away in the torrents. Please subscribe here: http://bit.ly/1rbfUog #Libya #Flooding #BBCNews
