Paris, France | AFP – Cyclone Chido killed at least 14 people on the French Indian Ocean island territory of Mayotte, a security source told AFP Sunday in an updated provisional toll.

The storm headed for the coast of Mozambique after sweeping through Mayotte’s shantytowns, with French Interior Minister Bruno Retailleau warning the final toll was feared to be heavy.
