Fiji families lose everything in back-to-back cyclones

From , 3:05 pm on 17 April 2018

A family in Fiji's cyclone hit west has next to nothing left after a small creek swelled into a raging torrent during this month's back-to-back cyclones and heavy rain.

The Shamim's are among 150 thousand people who were affected after homes were drowned and towns inundated in the spate of bad weather.

RNZ Pacific's Sally Round has been in Fiji and has this report.
