Sharjah24 – Reuters: At least seven people died as Tropical Cyclone Gombe made early morning landfall in Mozambique on Friday packing wind speeds exceeding 200 kmh (125 mph) that pummelled north and central areas of the country, President Filipe Nyusi said.
The southern African country has been struggling to recover from a series of devastating cyclones that have killed scores of people and displaced thousands.

Nyusi, speaking to reporters during a visit to South Africa, said: "I have briefed President Ramaphosa on the Gombe tropical storm affecting Mozambique since 2 a.m. today. Seven people were killed across Nampula province due to fallen houses and other infrastructure (collapsing)."
