The communities of Somerset and London were among the hardest hit, with entire neighborhoods reduced to rubble and lives tragically lost. In London, at least 23 fatalities have been confirmed, while Somerset reported at least one death, with many more injured and displaced . 

The tornado struck London around 11:49 p.m., tearing through Keavy Road, Kentucky 1006, Old Whitley Road, and the London Corbin Airport area, causing mass casualties and widespread damage . In Somerset, numerous homes and businesses were damaged or destroyed, prompting a mass casualty declaration . Emergency shelters have been established at locations such as the First Baptist Church in London and the South Laurel High School Gym to assist those affected .   

In response to this tragedy, PraXel Line Services has launched the “Kentucky Relief Fund” to support the recovery and rebuilding efforts in these communities.
