One body has been retrieved following the floods that hit Kasese district yesterday.

The two others are yet to be found.

The flooding comes after River Nyamwamba burst its banks yesterday leaving several homes and properties submerged and displacing scores of people.

Several roads have been flooded and some bridges like Recreation Bridge have been washed away.

Traffic flow has been disrupted as the Kasese- Fortportal road is completely submerged.

Kilembe hospital which is located in a valley is also affected.

River Nyamwamba crosses Kasese municipality from Rwenzori Mountains to Lake George.

The Red Cross Action Team continues with rescue efforts.
