Emmanuel Macron Visits Cyclone-Stricken Mayotte to Provide Aid
French President Emmanuel Macron has arrived in Mayotte, which has declared a state of exceptional natural disaster following devastating impacts from Cyclone Chido. At least 31 people are deceased, with many still missing. Macron brought essential food and health supplies, addressing urgent needs amid reports of shortages and a newly enforced curfew. The territory, one of France’s poorest, faces challenges in restoring vital services as emergency responders continue to search for the missing and manage potential health risks due to clean drinking water shortages.
