*Flash Floods Hit Beitbridge Town* *Follow Pindula on WhatsApp for daily new updates* https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029Va84dngJP21B2nWeyM3v?rl A violent storm hit Beitbridge on Wednesday night leaving dozens of families without food as water flooded homes. No deaths or injuries were reported but residents are without water after power to water pumps was cut off. ---------- Latest itel S24 available on Pindula: 128GB storage, 4GB RAM $119 USD WhatsApp: +263715068543 Calls: 0772464000 Buy Online: https://www.pindula.co.zw/market/itel-s24-128gb-22-20240426142756795795/?s=wanews ---------- The Beitbridge district civil protection unit (CPU) on Thursday sent teams to assess damage in Dulivhadzimo high-density suburb, the worst affected. CPU has issued an alert to potentially vulnerable areas in Chikwarakwara and Shashi where flooding occurs when there are storms. Addressing reporters on Thursday, Beitbridge head of the CPU Sikhangezile Ncube said: > We have tasked the municipality of Beitbridge to head a technical team that will make a detailed assessment. > The details we want should include the number of households, number of people, gender, and age of those affected. The immediate problem we have just established is the lack of food. > We are also looking for long-term solutions to end this problem we face perennially. We need a lasting intervention. It does not make sense that each year we fight floods in the same area. Beitbridge town clerk Loud Ramagkapola said the municipality was considering relocating the affected residents under its urban renewal programme. Most of the people who were affected by the storm were vendors plying their trade near Dulivhadzimo bus terminus. | NewsDay _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
