Cyclone Freddy has hit Mozambique and Malawi.
Cyclone Freddy, packing powerful winds and torrential rain, killed more than 100 people in Malawi and Mozambique on its return to southern Africa's mainland.
More than 11,000 people were affected by the storm.
Cyclone Freddy reached landlocked Malawi early on Monday morning after sweeping through Mozambique at the weekend.
The last cyclones to cross the entire southern Indian Ocean were Leon-Eline and Hudah in 2000.
