99 people have been confirmed dead as of Monday.

Over the weekend, the latest major storm of the season, Cyclone Freddy, touched down in the country of Malawi, bringing with intense flooding and damage. As of Monday night, 99 Malawi citizens are confirmed to be dead, with 85 of those deaths occurring in the country’s capital city of Blantyre alone, alongside 134 hospitalizations.

According to Malawi President Lazarus Chakwera, the country is currently in a “state of disaster” as they do their best to send rescue and assistance teams to the most-affected areas. In a press release, Chakwere “has noted with grave concern the devastation that Cyclone Freddy is currently bringing to most districts in Malawi’s Southern region.”

“Accordingly, government is already responding to the emergencies, rendering urgent assistance to all affected districts, and appealing for local and international support for all the families affected by this disaster,” the statement added.

Charles Kalemba, Malawi’s Commissioner for Disaster Management Affairs, outlined the current state of the damage to CNN. “We are still having a lot of rains coming down. We are now experiencing landslides, flash floods and stones rolling down some hills. Because of the weather, rescue efforts are not easy. Some of the places we have to go and rescue people, it’s not easy to get there. It’s tough but we are making sure we do the job that we need to do,” he said.
