At least 31 people have been killed and dozens are reported missing in parts of eastern Zimbabwe after a tropical cyclone ripped through the country.
“We have lost 31 Zimbabweans,” the Ministry of Information tweeted Twitter Saturday, adding that people have been “swept away” in the flooding that has claimed dozens of homes and caused huge infrastructure damage.
UN officials estimate that severe flooding has affected 1.5 million people in Mozambique and Malawi, where more than 120 people reportedly have been killed.
