Hurungwe district administrator Peacemaker Muzenda, who is also the district civil protection unit chairperson said

> I can confirm what has happened in Karoi. Currently, we do not have statistics of the affected households and we cannot give an evaluation of how much damage has been done. We are planning to have those affected accommodated at schools that are secure while we work on modalities.

Several parts of the country have experienced violent thunderstorms this season. The heavy rains are often triggered by high temperatures which trigger convectional rainfall.
