The situation in Mayotte remains extremely tense, and the consequences of “Chido” are still unclear. After the devastating cyclone in the French overseas territory, the Interior Ministry has imposed a night-time curfew to prevent looting. It applies between 10 p.m. and 4 a.m., the ministry announced in Paris on Tuesday.
