Caption
Tropical Cyclone Idai made landfall near the port city of Beira late last Thursday and slowly moved inland over the weekend, carving a trail of destruction across central Mozambqiue. The storm brought heavy rainfall and wind gusts of up to 105 miles per hour to the region, where dry conditions gave way to massive flooding.
Plan International, in coordination with the national governments, local partners and other humanitarian organisations, is prioritising the needs of affected families to ensure that have access to food, shelter, clean water and sanitation. We supported the search and rescue of people trapped in flooded parts of Buzi district. Together with our partner AJOAGO, in the last four days our boats have rescued more than 800 people, transferring them from the roofs of buildings and trees to safe shelters for people displaced by the floods.
