Four peacekeepers are missing in Sudan's Darfur region after being swept away by floods, a UN official has said.

According to BBC News, the peacekeepers were escorting an aid convoy when a "powerful current" swept them away.

The UN has not released the nationality of the missing peacekeepers.

Another two peacekeepers were found alive by a rescue team.

More than 300,000 people across Sudan have been affected by floods that have killed nearly 50 people in August, the World Health Organization has said.
