Cyclone Chido Causes Devastation in Mayotte

Cyclone Chido, considered the worst storm in a century, has brought widespread devastation to the French overseas territory of Mayotte in the Indian Ocean. The cyclone has caused complete destruction of shantytown areas, government buildings, a hospital, and makeshift housing, leaving at least 4 people dead. The government has deployed 110 civil security military officers and firefighters, as well as 1,600 gendarmes and police officers, to respond to the disaster. The storm is expected to remain dangerous as it moves southwest, with its impact still being felt in the region. The full extent of the damage and the number of injuries are yet to be determined, but the situation remains dire. The international community is closely monitoring the situation, and aid efforts are underway to support those affected by the cyclone.
