At least 83 have been confirmed dead, while dozens of people are still missing
- their number is still unknown - after the devastating series of tornadoes that hit six US states yesterday.
The rescue services let it be known.
Entire population centers have been devastated, some practically razed to the ground, such as the town of Mayfield, Kentucky.
"We still do not know how many human lives have been lost or the extent of the damage," US President Joe Biden said in the evening, promising that the federal state would do "everything possible to help".
