NOW IN MOZAMBIQUE: Cyclone Gezani RE-INTENSIFIES to 165 km/h — 1 Million BRACE for Second LANDFALL!

DEVASTATING: Cyclone Gezani has torn through Madagascar, leaving at least 38 people deceased and displacing hundreds of thousands in what authorities are calling one of the most destructive storms in recent history.

The powerful cyclone made landfall Tuesday night with winds reaching catastrophic levels, completely devastating the port city of Toamasina. Nearly 75% of this vital city of 400,000 residents has suffered severe damage or complete destruction. Homes were flattened, power lines snapped, and entire neighborhoods plunged into darkness as torrential rains and storm surges overwhelmed the region.

This tragedy struck just 11 days after Cyclone Fittia claimed 14 lives, highlighting the increasing frequency of extreme weather events hitting Madagascar. Over 12,000 people have been directly affected, with families describing six hours of terror as violent winds shattered windows and floodwaters rushed into their homes.

The disaster has crippled critical infrastructure across Toamasina, disrupting food distribution, limiting medical access, and causing fuel shortages. Roads, power grids, and health facilities have been severely compromised, prompting the government to appeal for urgent international assistance.

Scientists warn that rising ocean temperatures are intensifying tropical cyclones, making devastating storms like Gezani more frequent and destructive. Madagascar, one of the world's most climate-vulnerable nations, faces repeated humanitarian disasters as extreme weather events continue to escalate.
