Tropical Storm Ana, which devastated three countries in southern Africa, has claimed 77 lives as emergency services struggled to repair damaged infrastructure and help tens of thousands of victims.
Tropical Storm Ana made landfall on Madagascar on Monday before sweeping through Mozambique and Malawi through the week, bringing heavy rainfall in the African countries.
In all three countries, emergency workers and authorities assessed the full extent of the damage early on Friday morning, even as a new storm gathered in the Indian Ocean.
At least 48 people have died in Madagascar, which declared a state of national disaster on Thursday night. Mozambique reported 18 deaths, while Malawi reported 11.
