MOSCOW (Pakistan Point News / Sputnik - 10th April, 2019) Russia has brought relief aid to the port city of Beira in Mozambique, one of the southeastern African countries ravaged by tropical Cyclone Idai, the Russian Foreign Ministry said Tuesday.
"On April 8, medical modules with medicine and medical instruments were brought to Mozambique's city of Beira as part of assistance to the population who suffered from this natural disaster," it said.
Last month's storm was the worst to hit the region in two decades. It also pummeled Malawi and Zimbabwe, affecting a total of 600,000 people, although the UN's World food Programme believes that number could be as high as 1.7 million.
