The number killed in floods in Kenya has risen to 88, the government has said, as two rivers burst their banks causing more displacement.
More than 34,000 people have been displaced and at least 21 countries affected by the floods, which started earlier in March.
On Monday, the Nyando River in western Kenya overflowed, submerging sections of the Ahero Bridge along the Kericho-Awasi-Kisumu road and disrupting transport in the region.
The government has urged motorists to avoid the flooded route and seek alternative roads.
"This advisory is especially critical during the hours of darkness, when it may be difficult to accurately determine the depth and strength of the flowing water," a statement said.
Rescue efforts led by the Kenya Red Cross Society have intensified in the worst-hit areas.
In the Nyando area, rescue teams have evacuated more than 200 people and over 200 livestock, while at least two families were pulled from immediate danger.

Authorities are also working to evacuate more than 900 students from the Ahero Girls National School as floodwaters continue to rise.
At least 265 households have been affected in the area, Kenya's Ministry of Interior and National Administration said on Tuesday.
Displaced residents are being sheltered in public facilities, including government offices, churches and health centres.
Six unaccompanied children were among those rescued and are currently under care.
Flooding has also been reported in other regions.
In Tana River county, the River Tana burst its banks, flooding farms in Mbalambala and surrounding areas, including Asako village, and threatening food production.
In Uasin Gishu county, a multi-agency team is assessing the impact of rising water levels along Sosiani River in Lower Elgon View, where residential and hospitality facilities have been affected.
