Winds of up to 170 kph and flooding swept across south eastern Africa, including, affecting more than 2.6 million people, United Nations officials said on Tuesday.

The organisation said large areas to the west of the port city of Beira were severely flooded, and in places close to the Buzi and Pungwe rivers flood waters are metres deep, completely submerging homes, telephone poles and trees. The cyclone hit land near Beira on Thursday and moved inland throughout the weekend, leaving heavy rains in its trail on Tuesday. More rural areas remained inaccessible.
