A powerful cyclone Amphan has left at least 14 people dead in India and eight dead in Bangladesh, according to officials. National Disaster Relief Force personnel immediately swung into action clearing roads blocked by uprooted trees. The cyclone rolled inland on Wednesday after crashing into the coasts of India and Bangladesh, where over 2.6 million people fled to shelters in a frantic evacuation made more challenging by the coronavirus pandemic.
Cyclone Amphan, the equivalent of a Category 3 hurricane, was packing sustained winds of up to 170 kph (105 mph) with maximum gusts of 190 kph (118 mph) during its landfall.
We pray for all who got affected.,,🙏
