BISHKEK (Reuters) – Floods in southern Kyrgyzstan have killed four people and flooded hundreds of houses in Osh, the central Asian nation’s second-biggest city, the emergencies ministry said on Monday.

A woman and her three children have been found dead, swept away by the Ak-Buura river which burst due to heavy rains, the ministry said in a statement, and hundreds of people have been evacuated.
