The flood waters caused by Cyclone Idai in Mozambique are beginning to recede. But as the water level drops, new devastation emerges. Hundreds of thousands of people have lost their homes and many have lost family members. The International Committee of the Red Cross is supporting flood affected communities to recover bodies, identify them and to bury them in clearly marked graves. In this clip, Stephen Fonseca, the ICRC forensic expert working in the province of Manica in western Mozambique, describes the challenges that he and his colleagues face.
