Hundreds of thousands homeless

Christian Aid has launched an appeal to help the people who have been affected by the massive cyclone in Burma, a country in South East Asia.

Tropical Cyclone Nargis struck on 2 May. It is now thought to have killed around 100,000 people, with tens of thousands more still missing. Many people are without food or shelter.
