The Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA), on Monday, said it is gravely concerned by reports of mass casualties and large-scale displacement following intense fighting on Friday and Saturday in and around Zamzam and Abu Shouk displacement camps and the town of El Fasher in North Darfur.
The cyclone is expected to make landfall near Beira in central Mozambique on Saturday morning, according to the World Meteorological Organization (WMO), the UN's authoritative voice on weather, climate and water.
