A woman gave birth in a mango tree while escaping floods in central Mozambique caused by Cyclone Idai.
Single mother Amélia delivered her daughter, Sara, whilst clinging to the branches with her two‑year‑old son.
The family was rescued two days later by neighbours, following storms that have killed more than 700 people.
It comes nearly 20 years after another miracle baby, Rosita Mabuiango, was born up a tree during flooding in southern Mozambique.
Amélia and her newly extended family are now staying at temporary accommodation in nearby Dombe, and are reportedly in good health.
