Mozambique: hope for the city without roofs

After cyclone "Idai" is available in Mozambique, the first Cholera cases. Also in the city of Beira, the situation is tense. Together, residents and aid organizations, and the reconstruction begun.

At all the corners, you hear a Hammering and Knocking - the noise of the reconstruction. "The city without roofs", as the people of Beira have come to call. With a simple tool people rooms to their homes, as Kelvin Fernando Vasco Da Souza. "It is not easy to rebuild their homes, but we yearn for a normal life," he says.

normality is not, however, think for a long time, because furthermore, the helicopters are almost constantly in use. Still, the helpers take to the sky to save people, even on day twelve after the cyclone. Still you are transporting relief goods and, thus, will not be the end.

Alone in Mozambique destroyed "Idai" the harvest on 400,000 hectares of Land.

"life returns"

Although a lot has already happened. Trees had been cleared out of the way and on almost all roads, you could run again, and driving, Beira mayor Daviz Simango. "Of coarse everything is working again. Electricity is still missing and there is not enough water, but life returns. We must not let the Beira does not fall." The city is not only important for Mozambique, but also for other countries. Many ship routes start in the port of Beira.

the port and airport are open again, but basically Beira starts at Zero. The first cases of Cholera are confirmed, although the water supply works for the most part, again. Now it is, the power supply. Because some of it is already back to almost normal: The children go to school and markets sell food, albeit at significantly higher prices than two weeks ago.
