Flooding, brought by Storm Daniel, has pushed a divided nation to the limit with alarming levels of death and destruction. The death toll in Libya is estimated at more than 2,300. 

The Red Crescent has gone public on this figure, adding that as many as 10,000 are unaccounted for. But the reality is the total killed in the floods will be far higher.
