"Cyclone Freddy Leaves Devastation and Death in Malawi and Mozambique"

The death toll from Cyclone Freddy has surpassed 300, with hundreds still missing in Mozambique and Malawi. The storm caused severe flooding, sweeping away roads and farms with bodies and houses buried in mud. Continued rain and power outages have hampered search and rescue efforts. Locals are angered about the lack of rescue services and relief items, with many organizing themselves into groups to retrieve bodies while waiting for help from the authorities. Malawi has declared 14 days of mourning for the victims and pledged $1.5m in assistance.
