Mayotte, a French archipelago in the Indian Ocean, faces a race against time to restore basic services following the devastating impact of Cyclone Chido. French President Emmanuel Macron is set to convene a meeting on the situation as fears rise for hundreds, possibly thousands, of casualties. The cyclone, the strongest to hit the island in 90 years, has left many homeless and with disrupted communication. Rescue operations are underway, but issues such as the high number of undocumented migrants complicate casualty assessments.
