Seventy people have been killed in flooding in South Africa after six weeks of heavy rains. More than 8,000 people have had to move or have had their homes flooded. Displaced families are currently living in community halls or tents and are receiving food parcels. In Mozambique 10 people have died as a result of floods, with more than 10,000 others evacuated from their homes. Botswana, Namibia, Zambia and Zimbabwe have also been affected by the heavy rains. Though there have been no reports yet of major incidents in those countries, people in low-lying areas have been warned to leave their homes.
