a life and living that. juno here welcome to the show now nearly a million people have been affected after severe floods in parts of malawi and mozambique every rain started in the middle of last week in malawi and central and northern was on the at least seven hundred forty thousand people have felt the impact in malawi while one hundred forty one thousand people have been affected in mozambique and it's expected to get worse each cycle on the die is approaching and is due to make landfall in mozambique on thursday authorities there. for help meanwhile balawi is also at risk of further flooding. cycling set to bring

heavy winds over the coming days both countries are prone to bad weather into into fessing more than two hundred people were killed by flooding in malawi. joining me now is allison sagar a freelance journalist with currently in the flood affected areas in south in malawi hello allison thanks for joining us what is the situation like on the ground as we speak as we speak now between the ground is not all of that group and latest information shows that fifty seven people fifty six people have so far died. i found and. thousands of people are still being evacuated the numbers keep increasing each passing hour as a stick now. that's good. for sure but maybe from tomorrow it could be some more rain coming and not what's happening on the grounds nami and as.

people being put to safety what something key you can tell us now currently government through the department of disaster management has deployed what. affected parts of a fifty district. has been deployed to one of the most crucial areas in two thousand part of malarky the santa district where people who are white. men women and children so the situation in the ground is like the government is really busy trying to rescue people who have been affected and are. talking about the government how well equipped really is it to handle this. toiletry kid because the government has been spending a lot of money already on organizing. telling people to move up the ranks before

the flood can find the usual government like that of malawi hasn't got enough money but it is sorely thought the same so it is dependent on the chinese organizations like mine then it is only coming in. now finally before you go i mean maureen's i expected to so called get ware's and like you said many hmong being found dead so what is being done to prevent that. escalating the situation. at the moment the government has literally provided some camps in all the districts we have people are being evacuated and are being given medical treatment and there's also some other line for id and otherwise there is much that can be done of them or

moved people can be seen anywhere else for your information some people are coming as far as mozambique crossed into malawi because this lot of us are sick of part of mozambique and saw the numbers they live in and i'm sure this will give them a lot of government tough time to find money to help these people who have been sitting in floods out of saying god freelance journalist thank you very much for your time. as we've had earlier regions of mozambique have also been hits by flooding the government has declared a red lets due to the tropical cyclone he die a spec to reach that country soon let's talk about that with michael chiles from international federation of red cross and red crescent societies who is coordinating the response thank you very much michael for joining as that what exactly are you doing to help the people in mozambique so if you have you rightly said you know we're expecting a tropical storm to heat and it's going to hit

a few provinces i'm busy as well found a province is especially and we have our volunteers on the ground as you know the red cross is a volunteer based organization and in mozambique we have thousands of volunteers who are preparing who who are one in the community members who are trying to look at them to higher ground and ensuring that you know there's safety within the communities and be a state of this cycle is not as brief as it should be. so a cycle is coming everyone hispanic king what exactly can be done to survive a cycle. well what exactly can be done is exactly early warnings that we need to want one the community members we need to ensure that you know they can move to safer ground or into cycling comes we need to ensure that there is proper shelter for them and we also need to ensure that yes there will be devastation and we have the red cross we're already preparing so we're pre-positioning our stocks and which is non-food items blanket shelter really preposition in that's closer to the site

so that once the cycle hits the floods the effects of the flood gates at least wait will to bring relief to the people that are needed to bring relief to the communities in terms of health education in spencer safe water in terms of hygiene and the red cross as i said you know where we're at the ground really preparing the community members to be able to respond so early out there was a flood and we understand the nice to sustain six to six people have died from with that cyclists coming is going to be an even bigger impact what's the worst case scenario or how big is this going to head well the the the worst case scenario we're not sure off but we are prepared in terms of really engaging at the community level yes unfortunately sixty six people died but we're hoping that at least with the relief we're bringin em with the coach called the nation mechanisms
