Washed away roads and bridges currently hamper further distribution. The sodden grounds are making it difficult for tent pitching. The beneficiaries will later use the materials for the construction of new houses. The Air Force are rescuing people by helicopters from the islands where they have escaped. Four people have been reported to be killed, three drowned and one hit by a fallen electricity line.
Telephone lines have been cut off, thus the communication is difficult.
Several bridges were flooded during the Eline. I understand that the brigde between Masvingo and Beitbridge has been damaged. In Beitbridge the amount of affected people is about 22000. More huts are reported still to be falling. The crops in the affected areas have been destroyed.
