Mayotte Faces Price Surge and Humanitarian Crisis After Cyclone Chido

The French overseas territory of Mayotte is experiencing a significant increase in the prices of essential goods following Cyclone Chido, which resulted in at least 33 deaths. President Emmanuel Macron is scheduled to visit the island on December 19, 2023, to address the challenges faced by residents, many of whom are struggling with exorbitant prices for basic necessities. In response to the crisis, the government has enacted a price freeze on consumer goods. However, delays in humanitarian aid distribution continue to fuel frustrations among the population.
