Rokna:A rescue operation has been launched in Iran’s southern province of Kerman to find a number of locals reported missing in a flash flood that ripped through a village in Baft county, authorities said after retrieving two corpses.
Governor of Baft, Majid Zand, said on Saturday that five people were reported missing after a flash flood swept through the village of Miandeh on Friday evening, noting that two bodies, a man and a woman, have been found this morning.
The victims had been trapped in their car when the flood pushed the vehicle off the road.
