About 3,000 were killed on September 11. The other day, an estimated 18,000-20,000 people were killed by oil and gas corporations through climate change and last nobody I know has even heard about it.

18,000-20,000.

From a single flood.

According to the BBC news, there were 2 dams, badly maintained, the higher dam failed, the force of the water caused the 2nd dam to fail too, then the town was overrun with water.

The finger of blame is being poited squarely at the government of libya and also the various war lords trying to gain control of the country or parts of the country, the authorities were warned about this several times, they ignored and this is / was the result.
