Elderly Woman Stands in Destroyed Home

This elderly victim of Cyclone Aila stands inside her destroyed home. She still lives here despite the fact that Cyclone Aila has taken all of her possessions away. The foundation is washed away and this home is not properly anchored to the ground anymore. As the Save the Children disaster manager told me, the house could fall any minute.

 

"Looks at what hardship we live in" she told me.
