Answer:

Tropical Cyclone Freddy had a severe impact on Mozambique, with heavy rainfall causing widespread flooding and significant damage to infrastructure. The storm made two landfalls in the country, the second of which brought further floods and wind damage. The triple crisis of the cyclone, floods, and a cholera outbreak had a massive humanitarian and socio-economic impact, with 17 people confirmed dead and 1,900 homes destroyed. Overall, Cyclone Freddy killed 198 people in Mozambique, making it one of the deadliest tropical cyclones ever recorded in the Southern Hemisphere. The storm also raised concerns about food security, with millions left at risk.
