Rescue operations are ongoing in Central Texas after flash flooding along the Guadalupe River left 23 to 25 girls from Camp Mystic unaccounted for. Officials say dozens have died as catastrophic floods continue to ravage the Hill Country.

At least 43 people, including 15 children, died in Kerr County after a storm unleashed nearly a foot (0.3 meters) of rain on Friday and sent floodwaters gushing out of the Guadalupe River through the hilly region known for its century-old summer camps. Another eight people died in nearby counties.

At least 27 girls are still missing after the Texas floods hit Camp Mystic. Nearly one foot of torrential rainfall caused the Guadalupe River to rise rapidly, leading to flash floods. The camp suffered major damage. Many cabins were destroyed, and search and rescue operations are still ongoing.
