Hello from CNN. I'm a Foma Dikay with the five things you need to know for Wednesday

September 13th. Severe flooding from Storm Daniel has killed more than 6,000 people

in Libya. That's according to Libya's

Western government, which is internationally recognized.

CNN has not been able to independently verify the number of deaths or those

missing. The political divisions in Libya are

straining relief efforts. The recent floods primarily affected the eastern part of

Libya which is under the control of the Libyan army which supports the unrecognized government.

Bodies are piling up in the eastern city of Derna.

Morgs are full in hospitals that remain out of service,

despite the desperate need to treat survivors, according to staff.

Here's CNN's Ben Weedeman.

Doctors are concerned about the outbreak of disease

as a result of all these dead bodies.

Hundreds, it looks like thousands of bodies in the street. Now it's

also hard to get assistance to the town because many of the bridges and the roads

leading to Derna have been washed away.

The U.S. says it's providing $1 million in humanitarian assistance.
