The death toll from Tropical Cyclone Kenneth increased to 42 as the Indian Ocean archipelago of Comoros struggles to restore power supplies and torrential rains causes flooding in Mozambique.
At least 182 people were injured by the hurricane-strength storm that swept across the two nations, the United Nations humanitarian office said.
Kenneth was the second cyclone to hit Mozambique in two months, after a previous storm in March left more than 1,000 people dead in the southern African nation, along with neighbouring Zimbabwe and Malawi.
Most of Comoros’ inhabitants have been without power since latest cyclone damaged the country’s electricity grid last week, the UN agency said.
“The electricity grid is destroyed throughout the country, leaving the majority of people without power and impacting access to healthcare,” it said.
