Texas Flood Disaster: Camp Mystic Devastation and Rising Death Toll

Rescue teams and volunteers have been tirelessly searching for survivors in Texas following catastrophic flooding that has claimed at least 90 lives, including more than two dozen children. The devastating event, which began with heavy rains early Friday, saw the Guadalupe River surge over 20 feet in just an hour, causing widespread destruction.

Among the hardest-hit areas is Camp Mystic, a Christian summer camp in Hunt, Texas, where officials are mourning the loss of 27 children and counselors. Photos reveal the extent of the tragedy, with campers’ belongings strewn across flooded dormitories and items like a pink backpack and a Camp Mystic T-shirt discovered washed up along the swollen riverbanks.

The floodwaters inundated Kerr County, where Sheriff Larry Leitha confirmed the recovery of 48 adults and 27 children. The storm also brought down power lines, toppled trees, and swept away numerous vehicles, leaving a trail of devastation across the region. Efforts to find missing persons and assess the full scope of the disaster are ongoing.
