Help keep family & friends informed by sharing this articleAfter killing hundreds and displacing thousands as it barrelled through Mozambique and Malawi, twice, Cyclone Freddy has dissipated over land, although flooding remains a threat in both countries, a regional monitoring centre has said.
More than 45,000 people are still holed-up in shelters, with about 1,300 square kilometres still under water, according to the EU's Copernicus satellite system. "When you look at all these children, they don't have food, they don't have bedding … they're just lacking everything, even protection."Although the government was prepared and public warnings were issued, Ms Nyambalo said: "It just blew out of hand.""We're just hoping that, maybe, we'll wake up tomorrow and the situation will change but, currently, the situation is still not very stable.
Some aid organisations suspended outreach programs to protect staff against flash floods and landslides.Freddy was initially projected to exit back to the sea on Wednesday but has since waned and is no longer classed as a tropical cyclone, the United Nations' weather monitoring centre in Réunion said.
