  • In the overseas territory of Mayotte, French authorities have begun a controversial operation to expel thousands of migrants from a shantytown there. France says it plans to send the migrants to the Comoran island of Anjouan, but Comoran authorities say they'll refuse to take them in. France is also planning on destroying more slums across Mayotte, with residents there fearing they could end up homeless. FRANCE 24's Andrew Hilliar reports.

    I am fine with this, stop attempting to sow fear and initiate some public outcry by giving videos these types of titles. There are immense levels of crime on Mayotte as a result of illegal immigration. EU is currently preoccupied with Ukraine and a looming financial crisis, they don't have time or money to spend on these kinds of things. If they are deported, so be it.

      ​@Mira Moche they are the wealthiest in the region. This is how bad poverty in Africa. Hence why people migrate to former colonial powers they have all the money and still conduct neocolonialism throughout the world via IMF restructuring debt traps sanctions n coups. Stop pretending as if this isn't already obvious why ask such a ridiculous question?

      @Mira Moche those aren't excuses those are verifiable facts lol imf loans haven't reduced poverty in most cases. Mayotte is the wealthiest island in the region yet poverty is obviously extreme with no solutions from Paris beyond brutalizing half the population. They could have brought investments or social workers instead they brought men with guns and rubber bullets. Just like a colonial power.

      Little do you know. The Maorais -- the citizens of Mayotte -- rejected independence in 1974, while it could gone for it when the Comoros became independent. Let's be honest, Mayotte is a burden on France, a burden it would rather be rid of.
