SOUNDBITE (English) Chris Stapleton, recording artist, on volunteering after deadly flooding in Kentucky: "It was complete and utter devastation and I don't know what it's going to take to recover from it. It's going to take a lot. A lot more than any one individual can do, it's going to take a lot of hands, will take a lot of people, you know, people on the ground who've been there a lot longer than I was. I was there for a few days. It's going to take a lot. And it's just --it's just it's one of the worst things I've ever seen. You know, it's just heartbreaking. People's homes washed off their foundations miles down the road. You know, and they have nothing. People looking for their loved ones. And I don't know what the missing and lost count is at this point, but it's very, very tragic in an area of the country that doesn't get a lot of attention very often. And I don't know. It's a lot. They're gonna need a lot." ASSOCIATED PRESS Archive: Fleming-Neon, Kentucky – 6 August 2022 3. Wide drone shot of Neon section of Fleming-Neon 4. Wide of women dumping wheelbarrow on debris pile 5.
