The winds had reduced to about 70 kilometres an hour on Friday.

People stand by damaged houses and fallen trees on April 25, 2019 in Moroni after tropical storm Kenneth hit Comoros before heading to recently cyclone-ravaged Mozambique.MAPUTO - A powerful cyclone smashed into northern Mozambique, leaving one person dead on Friday, barely a month after a super-storm hit the centre of the country, devastating the area and leaving hundreds dead.

"I don't expect to find my hotel undamaged," said Swiss hotel owner Lucie Amr, who took refuge in Ibo's fort alongside many local residents. "Although floodwaters have receded in most areas it affected, access is still a challenge as infrastructure was severely compromised," the WFP said. A helicopter is expected to arrived in Cabo Delgado when weather conditions allow as roads are expected to be impassable because of flooding, making food delivery difficult, it added.

The Red Cross warned it was"especially concerned" about the storm's impact, as many communities in Mozambique are still recovering from a cyclone that hit on the night of March 14-15.
