French president to travel to "devastated" island of Mayotte

The French president Emmanuel Macron says he will travel to France's Indian Ocean territory of Mayotte in the coming days, as rescue teams rush to locate the missing.

The interior minister says the French island has been "devastated" after Cyclone Chido hit the territory.

At least 20 people have been confirmed dead, but authorities fear that hundreds of people could have died in the disaster.
