The floods swept through multiple counties—most notably Travis, Hays, Williamson, and Kerr—claiming at least 80 lives, including many children. Thousands have been displaced, with homes, roads, and infrastructure heavily damaged.

In a letter dated July 8, 2025, President Mahama expressed Ghana’s deep sorrow over the tragic event.

“We are particularly saddened by the fact that many persons remain missing. On behalf of the Government and people of the Republic of Ghana, and in my own name, I extend our heartfelt condolences to Your Excellency, the Government, and the people of the United States of America, especially the bereaved families and all those affected by this tragic calamity,” the letter said.

President Mahama commended President Trump for his leadership and praised the tireless efforts of emergency responders, local authorities, and volunteers working under difficult conditions to rescue and support affected communities.

“Ghana stands in full solidarity with the government and people of the United States during this moment of grief and national mourning. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all,” Mahama stated, concluding with a reaffirmation of Ghana’s highest consideration and support.

The disaster prompted President Trump to issue a Major Disaster Declaration for Kerr County and activate FEMA assistance.

Celebrity voices—from Matthew McConaughey and Shakira to former presidents Bush and Obama—have joined in the outpouring of sorrow and solidarity.

Critics highlight that the flooding overwhelmed local warning systems; while the National Weather Service had issued multiple alerts, the lack of evacuation notices has drawn scrutiny.
