Zimbabwe has declared a state of emergency in the capital, Harare over a cholera outbreak that has killed dozens.
Harare Mayor, Ian Makone said there were more than 7,000 suspected cases which invoked memories of a deadly outbreak in 2008, in which thousands died.
The International Federation of the Red Cross (IFRC) also confirmed that Health authorities have been struggling to contain the high number of admissions due to lack of health workers and supplies to stop the transmission.
Zimbabwe has been battling the deadly cholera outbreak in recent months amid a lack of access to clean water.
