Mozambique Flooding

Mozambiques worst flooding in 50 years led to impacts and cause that devastated the country and the people not tho socially but also physically and scotchally too. In the duck below I have separated the floods effects into Short shape and long term effects Short term effectsLong term effects Electricity Cut-off- Electricity was cut off due to the torrential waters force that swept away the electricity transmission towers. destruction and severe injuries- 100s died as a result of the floods, thousands suffered from water-borne diseases and dysentery.Transport Transport is a major(ip) struggle in LEDCs like Mozambique and the floods made that worse by downfall 620 miles of roads and railways and also damaging vehicles, moreover this made rescuing, distributing food, drinks and aid regular harder. Cleaning up the mess- All the debris and rubble left by the floodwaters which it gained through Hydraulic action and then traction or were damaged parts from buildings, took a chew of effort to manage and clear up, particularly for Mozambique, being a LEDC country.Communication links broken- The communication links werent addressable everywhere in Mozambique in the first place so the residents didnt get a cautioning. And by not being able to warn the people, more damages were made certain. Agriculture disrupted- Much of the land in Mozambique is dedicated to agriculture (62%) as it is a common job for Mozambicans. However, roughly of the crops were destruct by the floodwaters, devastating the land owners and the countrys economic status further.Shortage of food and water- Lack of food and water was a unorthodox problem. The water most people drank was contaminated, thus people became ill by diseases such as Dysentery, Typhoid, Cholera, etc. Homes and Buildings destroyed- Buildings in urban areas (Maputo, Beira) were entirely destroyed by the flood and the cyclone. Rebuilding them could take years and a lot of money.
