Aid finally reaches Zimbabwe village 12 days after cyclone


Residents remove mud from their home and yard caused by Cyclone Idai in Chimanimani, Zimbabwe Sunday, March 24 2019. Survivors in Machongwe village rushed for aid this week, 12 days after the cyclone hit, putting aside a search that is now less about finding survivors and more about properly burying bodies. The village is one of many in Zimbabwe and Mozambique cut off since Cyclone Idai made landfall on March 14, swamping huge areas of central Mozambique and sending boulders crashing down mountainsides in Zimbabwe. He must have been sleeping when the cyclone hit, people said. Residents asked soldiers to take the body away because they could not identify it.
