France will do everything it can to rebuild the overseas territory of Mayotte, which was devastated by Cyclone Chido, French President Emmanuel Macron said during a visit to the small group of islands in the Indian Ocean on Thursday.

Boeing said late on Tuesday it has resumed production of all airplane programs that had been halted by a machinists' strike in the Pacific Northwest.

Rescue workers are racing to save lives and repair damage wrought by Tropical Cyclone Chido in a string of islands across the southwestern Indian Ocean.
