Government to discuss aid appeal with donors

    JOHANNESBURG

    The Mozambican government is to meet donors and aid groups this week to discuss an international appeal for aid after severe flooding in recent weeks left thousands homeless, news reports said on Wednesday.

    Foreign Affairs Minister Leonardo Simao told Reuters in an interview that "the situation was very bad (and) things are getting worse". Simao said the government was better prepared this year, but state agencies were straining to deliver food and other supplies to areas cut off by flooding.
