In response to the communications crisis caused by Cyclone Chido, French Prime Minister François Bayrou announced the deployment of 200 Starlink kits in Mayotte. This initiative aims to restore internet access for residents struggling after extensive damage to infrastructure. Despite the government’s efforts, tensions arose with local telecommunication operators regarding resource allocation. While some operators make progress in restoring coverage, many areas remain severely impacted, leading to calls for improved resource management as the island prepares for the new year.
