Strong tornadoes sweep across the central United States. More than 50 tornadoes hit six states in the country. Of these, 16 tornadoes originated in Illinois, 12 in Arkansas, 8 in Iowa, 3 in Wisconsin, 2 in Tennessee, and 2 in Mississippi. News from CNN. 

The state of Arkansas suffered the most damage from the tornado. The state was devastated by the storm. Many houses were destroyed. Trees fell on the road in the storm. Residents are without electricity due to the collapse of the electricity poles. Traffic is disrupted. The locals are in dire straits. 
 
In addition to infrastructure damage, many people have been injured in the state. The police have reached the ground to help the victims. Necessary items are being provided along with food. 

Meanwhile, a concert in Illinois was struck by a tornado that collapsed the roof of a theater. Local authorities say several hundred people were present at the time. It is feared that many may be injured in this incident. 
 
The US National Weather Service has warned that several states are at high risk of tornadoes due to widespread stormy weather. More tornadoes are also expected to hit in the next few days.
