Tropical Cyclone Freddy — one of the strongest cyclones ever recorded in the Southern Hemisphere — on Monday hit southern Africa for the second time, killing 99 people in Malawi and 10 in Mozambique.
“In total, 99 deaths have been recorded with 16 people reported missing and 39 camps set,” Malawi’s Department of Disaster Management Affairs (Dodoma) said late Monday.
