CAPE TOWN, SOUTH AFRICA:
Authorities in Mayotte fear hundreds and possibly thousands of people have died in Cyclone Chido, although the official death toll on Monday morning stood at 14.

French television station TFI reported on Monday morning that Interior Minister Bruno Retailleau had arrived in Mamoudzou, the capital of Mayotte.
"It will take days and days to establish the human toll," he told French media.
