"Emergency workers scrambled to rescue survivors on Monday from the wreckage of homes, hospitals, schools and businesses in Mayotte, a French archipelago in the Indian Ocean that was devastated by Tropical Cyclone Chido over the weekend."
"There were fears that the actual death toll could be far higher. I think that there will be several hundred deaths, Francois-Xavier Bieuville, France's top-ranking representative on the archipelago, told a local news channel."
"Chido was the worst storm to hit Mayotte in 90 years, according to forecasters, who said that wind gusts exceeded 124 miles per hour."
