Dozens of people have been killed in flooding in South Africa’s Eastern Cape province, after an extreme cold front brought heavy rain and snow to parts of the country.

Among the dead are six high-school students — swept away when their school bus was caught in floodwaters. Four other students are still missing. Disaster response teams have been activated in the region, where many homes are submerged or destroyed. Officials say the floods damaged at least 58 schools and 20 hospitals. Around 500 people have been taken to temporary shelters.
