Africké země Mosambik, Malawi a Madagaskar zasáhla o víkendu tropická bouře Freddy. Místní úřady zatím hlásí přes sto obětí a rozsáhlé záplavy. Podle Světové meteorologické organizace je Freddy jednou z neničivějších bouří, která se kdy na jižní polokouli objevila.
Freddy v trojici afrických zemích zapříčinil masivní záplavy, sesuvy půdy, destrukci budov a přerušení energetické sítě. Nejvíce úmrtí je hlášeno v Malawi, celkem 99. Freddy si v trojici afrických zemí vyžádal nejméně 136 životů a stovky zraněných.
