00:00
The French region's authorities grappled with the destructive trail that the cyclone
00:14
left behind.
00:17
Bulldozers were clearing the heliport of the island's only hospital as residents were
00:22
busy repairing their metal sheet huts.
00:29
Cyclones have also imposed a nightly curfew to prevent looting.
00:33
Prime Minister Franck Coy's bureau said the tragedy of Mayotte is probably the worst natural
00:38
disaster in the past several centuries of French history.
00:41
It was terrible, I think it was a two-time, a first-time, because a cyclone, it's, it
00:49
turns, in fact.
00:50
There was a first time, a huge gust of wind, and then maybe a slight calm of a few minutes
00:55
and then a second gust of wind, colossal.
00:57
So I think that in fact most people thought they were going to die.
01:07
Mayotte's population that lives in shanty towns whose sheet metal-roofed homes offered
01:12
scant protection from the storm.
01:15
Empowerment's sheet metal and destroyed wooden structures were strewn as far as the eyes
01:20
could see.
01:21
It was like a stream roller that crushed everything, said Nasreen, a Mayotte teacher.
01:50
It's a neighborhood where people are used to helping each other.
01:55
I don't know the neighborhood very well, but I know that here people have a lot of help.
02:01
For example, yesterday I saw people cooking like in the old days, in the time of our parents,
02:07
our grandparents, with pieces of wood.
02:10
They cooked outside, they cooked in large quantities and gave to those who could.
02:17
Health services across Mayotte are in tatters, while power and mobile phone services have
02:22
been knocked out.
02:24
The airport is closed to civilian flights, while the question of how to ensure supplies
02:30
of drinking water has caused mounting concern.
02:33
50% of the electricity network was back online, with a target of 75% by the end of the week.
02:41
We don't receive the radio anymore, we don't have electricity, we don't know what's going
02:45
on, we don't even know what's going on on the other side.
02:47
We don't even have any news on Petit-Terre about the earthquake.
02:50
So the death toll, apart from word of mouth in the neighborhoods where you go, we don't
02:57
have any information.
02:59
People have been cut off.
03:02
Assessing the toll is further complicated by irregular immigration to Mayotte, especially
03:08
from the Comoros Island to the north, meaning much of the population is unregistered.
03:39
French military planes have been shuttling between Mayotte and the island of La Reunion
03:45
that was spared by the cyclone.
04:08
We have water as much as we can.
04:10
We had a certain amount of reserves, but it's going to get more difficult.
04:15
But I know that the water is being gradually restored, and there are points of water where
04:20
we can, with cans, recover enough to wash a little, to do the dishes, that's it.
04:27
Petrus Letron, the prefect in La Reunion, said that around 200 shipping containers with
04:34
supplies and water would arrive by Sunday.
04:37
The government would set up a field hospital to relieve pressure on the main hospital.
04:43
We are looking for water to drink.
04:46
Water packs are rare.
04:48
We lack sardines too.
04:50
The products we conserve are rare.
04:53
We are looking for it.
04:55
It's true that we have already opened several stores, but like everyone else, everyone
04:59
is rushing to the stores.
05:01
So, inevitably, there are shortages.
05:03
French Navy support and assistance vessel, Camp Plane, will join the rescue services
05:09
in Mayotte.
