Cyclone Eloise: Drone footage shows devastation in Mozambique as thousands displaced from flooding

The death toll from storm Eloise rose to at least 13 on Monday after heavy winds, rain and flooding destroyed buildings, drowned crops and displaced thousands in parts of southern Africa.

Aerial footage showed swathes of land in eastern Mozambique submerged in flood waters, with residents and houses stranded in the devastating aftermath of Cyclone Eloise.

Eloise weakened to a tropical storm after making landfall in central Mozambique on Saturday but continued to dump rain on Zimbabwe, Eswatini (formerly known as Swaziland), South Africa and Botswana.
