**Cyclone Gezani: The Double Blow Hits Madagascar** Less than two weeks after Cyclone Fytia ravaged northwestern Madagascar, leaving 12 people dead and 31,000 displaced, the island nation is reeling from another devastating cyclone. Cyclone Gezani, a storm with hurricane-force winds and heavy rains, has made landfall, causing widespread destruction and displacement. The cyclone, which was downgraded to a tropical storm as it moved inland, has left a trail of destruction in its wake. Residents in the port city of Toamasina report that homes have been destroyed, roofs have been blown off, and floors are flooded.

The country's military leader, Colonel Michael Randrianirina, has offered to visit the affected areas to assess the situation. Cyclone Gezani's impact is being felt across the country, with reports of flooding, damage to homes, and disruption to basic services. The storm's landfall is being compared to one of the most intense recorded in the region, rivalling Cyclone Geralda in 1994, which left over 200 people dead and affected half a million more. The timing of the storm's arrival is particularly concerning, as it comes just days after Cyclone Fytia. The country's residents and authorities are facing a double blow, with many still recovering from the effects of the previous storm.
