Survivors move to high ground at Peacock growth point in Chimanimani, near the Mozambique border, Zimbabwe, March 22, 2019.
Cyclone Idai lashed the Mozambican port city of Beira with winds of up to 170 km per hour last week, then moved inland to Zimbabwe and Malawi, flattening buildings and putting the lives of millions at risk. “But unfortunately the number of dead is increasing, we have now 417 people who have lost their lives.”United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs said on Saturday that the Buzi and Zambezi rivers were at risk of breaking their banks again.
The storm has also killed 259 in Zimbabwe, and the number was expected to rise, relief agencies said. In Malawi, 56 people died in heavy rains before the onset of Idai.
