Mozambique cyclone aftermath: At least 200 dead, many more missing

It has been five days since Cyclone Idai slammed into the coast of Mozambique, then carried on into Zimbabwe and Malawi. But the scale of the disaster the powerful storm left behind is still not fully known. As many as 1-hundred thousand people are trapped in submerged villages. The power grid and communications network in the region have largely been wiped out. Roads are impassable. And extensive flooding, with waters more than six metres deep in places, has created vast, inland oceans. The aftermath of Cyclone Idai is being called "the worst humanitarian crisis in Mozambique's history."
