A major search and rescue operation is continuing through the night in Texas after flash floods killed at least 24 people and left many girls missing from a Christian summer camp.

Rescue crews are still searching for up to 25 children who were among the 750 girls attending the Camp Mystic just outside the town of Kerrville 104km north-west of San Antonio. 

 

 

A state of emergency has been declared in several counties where several roads have been washed away and phone lines are down. 

 

 

US President Donald Trump called the tragedy "shocking" and "terrible" as the White House pledged additional assistance.

 

 

Pictures show the deep flood waters swamping bridges and fast moving water swirling down roads.
