Cyclone Amphan Kills 84

 

CYCLONE Amphan has killed at least 84 people across Indian and Bangladesh.

It has devastated the eastern Indian city of Kolkata.

Amphan made landfall on Wednesday, lashing coastal areas with ferocious wind and rain.

But it was weakening as it moves north into Bhutan.

Thousands of trees were uprooted in the gales, electricity and telephone lines brought down and houses flattened, the BBC is reporting.

Many of Kolkata’s roads are flooded and its 14 million people without power.
