LIVE: Cyclone Chido Strikes France's Mayotte Archipelago, Leaving at Least 11 Dead
At least 11 people were killed as Cyclone Chido, the strongest storm in nearly a century, hit Mayotte, a French Indian Ocean archipelago north of Madagascar, authorities reported on Sunday. Meteo-France recorded winds exceeding 200 kph (124 mph), causing widespread destruction to homes, government buildings, and a hospital. The cyclone also heightened concerns over food, water, and sanitation. Establishing an accurate death toll is challenging, as Mayotte's Muslim customs require burials within 24 hours. Located 8,000 km from Paris, Mayotte faces economic challenges, gang violence, and social unrest, amplifying the impact of this devastating storm.
