Default Hundreds Feared Dead :French overseas territory of Mayotte, devastated by Cyclone

[Mayotte is a French territory located
off the southeastern shores of Africa.
It lies to the east of the Indian Ocean islands
of Comoros and northwest of Madagascar.

BBC:
[Widespread damage to infrastructure - including
downed power lines and impassable roads - is severely
hindering emergency operations.
Some of Mayotte's population of 320,000 have said
they are struggling with severe shortages
of food, water and shelter.
One resident of the capital city, Mamoudzou,
waiting in line for supplies said: "We've had no water
for three days now, so it's starting to be a lot.


"We're trying to get the bare minimum
to live on, because we don't know
when the water will come back."]


Many homes just have thin metal
on top.No chance.
