As of March 14, 2026, the death toll from the floods in Kenya has reached 62, according to officials from the Ministry of Interior and National Administration. Among the deceased, there are 46 men, 8 women, and 8 children. Nairobi has recorded the highest fatalities, accounting for 33 deaths, while the Eastern region follows with 17, and the Rift Valley region reports 7 fatalities.

The floods have severely impacted more than 10,000 households, forcing about 4,845 people to seek refuge in safer locations. Many areas in Nairobi were overwhelmed by the intense rainfall, which caused drainage systems to fail, leading to significant flooding and disruptions in transportation.

Emergency response teams, including military personnel, are currently deployed to assist in relief efforts, providing much-needed aid to those affected. The situation is compounded by ongoing rainfall, which continues to hamper recovery efforts.

As local authorities work to address the immediate needs of affected populations, health officials have raised alarms regarding potential outbreaks of water-borne diseases such as cholera and malaria, driven by contaminated water supplies following the flooding.

Kenya's President, William Ruto, expressed solidarity with those affected and acknowledged the urgent need for improved infrastructure to mitigate future flood risks. Aid workers are actively involved in rescue efforts as communities grapple with the aftermath of this devastating natural disaster.
