France boosts aid to Mayotte after devastating Cyclone Chido

France is increasing relief efforts in Mayotte after Cyclone Chido caused significant destruction. On Wednesday, 120 tonnes of food will be distributed to residents facing hunger and disease risks. A curfew is in place due to looting and lawlessness. The cyclone, the strongest in 90 years, has left thousands homeless and possibly hundreds dead. Many areas remain inaccessible, complicating rescue and recovery efforts. Health workers are preparing for potential disease outbreaks as clean water access is limited. The French government is sending supplies from Reunion Island, and ferry services between Mayotte's main islands have resumed. President Emmanuel Macron is scheduled to visit Mayotte on Thursday amid criticism of the government's disaster preparedness.
