Donors pledge $1.2bn to help rebuild Mozambique

International donors have pledged to contribute $1.2bn (£950m) to help rebuild areas and infrastructure destroyed by cyclones Idai and Kenneth in Mozambique, the UN says.

It is less than half of the $3.2bn required by the Mozambican government.

The announcement was made by President Filipe Nyusi at the International Conference of Donors in the city of Beira on Monday. Beira is one of the areas worst hit by the cyclones.

The two-day conference brought together around 700 participants from international organisations, private sectors and civil societies.

In his address, President Nyusi thanked all those who had pledged to help and encouraged everyone to continue raising the remaining amount required for a complete reconstruction.

He promised transparency in fund management.
