Ten die in Madagascar floods

 

 At least 10 people have died in Madagascar following heavy rains in the capital, Antananarivo. Two other people were injured and more than 500 were displaced by the storm on Tuesday.
The rain caused floods, landslides and damaged houses and roads, according to the National Bureau of Risk and Disaster Management.
The meteorological department has warned of more heavy rains in the coming days.
The rains come as southern parts of Madagascar are reeling from the worst drought in decades and the UN estimates that more than 1.3 million people there are in need of food.
