Cyclone Idai survivors need 'significant emergency response,' agencies say, as the death toll rises
Rescue workers at the Mozambican port city of Beira, where Tropical Cyclone Idai made landfall last week, have described scenes of devastation that will require a"significant emergency response... including medical services and water and sanitation support," according to aid agency Médecins Sans Frontières .
The Category 2 storm ripped through Mozambique with 175 kph winds last week, flattening homes and buildings, and causing widespread destruction as it moved through neighboring Zimbabwe and parts of Malawi. While the official death toll now stands at more than 200 in Mozambique, it is expected to rise significantly. On Monday, when the death toll was at 84, President Filipe Nyusi said that"everything indicates that we can have a record of more than 1,000 dead.
