Torrential rain and snow have hit parts of South Africa
At least 49 people, including seven school children, have been killed in floods that have swept through South Africa's Eastern Cape province as torrential rain and snow have hit parts of the country.
Among the bodies recovered are those of four children, a driver and a conductor who were on a bus that was carried away in flood waters as it was crossing a bridge in the town of Mthatha on Tuesday morning.
The authorities said rescue efforts were continuing to find four more children who had been in the vehicle that has since been found on a riverbank with no one inside.
