A teenager may have found part of missing Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 on a beach in Mozambique.

Australia’s transportation chief said the location of debris on a beach in the southeast African nation of Mozambique was consistent with drift-modelling used to search for missing Malaysia Airlines flight, MH370.

A court in Mozambique has sentenced three people to at least 20 years in prison each in the country’s biggest corruption case since independence.

Mozambique declared a state of emergency today to help citizens fleeing attacks against foreigners in South Africa, warning the "exodus will worsen" as thousands are still housed in makeshift camps awaiting transport back home.

Two people have been killed after a large fire at Mozambique's national weapons depot set off a series of explosions, witnesses said today.
