Beira, a city run on generators – It’s day four for Tereasa Dias in Mozambique
It is my fourth day here in Mozambique with Mercy Air and we are still in the city of Beira.

A storm was brewing over the city on Thursday. Most of Beira is still running on generators for businesses and houses.
Across the landscape tents were perched as temporary houses and hospitals for those affected by Cyclone Idai which made landfall on March 14, but many more are needed.
As I prepare for my journey back to South Africa tomorrow, I leave you with a last few pictures and a video.

Watch the video of a band playing typical Mozambican music at a restaurant at Beira’s beach club. The restaurant was one of the few that survived the storm. No tourists were seen, but many of the customers now frequenting the establishment were aid workers from all over the world.
