France demolishes homes on Mayotte island in migrant crackdown
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 23 май 2023
- French authorities on the Indian Ocean island of Mayotte, part of the Comoros archipelago, have begun demolishing homes in an operation they say is aimed at sub-standard housing and illegal migration. But locals say it is leaving them homeless.
Hundreds of security forces have been deployed since the campaign started in April.

What is despicable in this report is that it does not explain the point of view of the real victims: the mahoris, inhabitants originating from the island, and more than 90% of whom wish to remain French.
In addition this report is lying, for example wuambushu does not mean "get back" but "recovery".
In 1974 99.9% of Comorians voted for Independence from France while Mayotta voted to stay with France.
After independence all the comorians want to live in French Mayotta for better life.
does it make sense??
Does it make sense that Indians like yourself also are dying for a british passport?
@valzsupreme7549ow is that mayotta fault?
What's happening in manipur
France claims that the islands "voted" to remain under French rule (this was not recognized by the UN). But do keep in mind that France had a large naval and military bases there, they run everything, even the ballot boxes. They counted the votes. They wanted the Island to continue on as their naval base so they could keep their foothold in the Indian ocean. And have been know to be particularly ruthless towards African leaders, activists or entire countries whom they see as being against their interests.
France has more than one foothold in the Indian Ocean
You voted to get independence and now you are migrating to your neighboring brother because the made the right choice to stay 😂
France is doing right! Mayotte is beautiful. Don't let illegal immigrants ruin it!
the woman who claims be one of the hardest working women in the world to raise 7 children.. has she ever wondered why 7 children in the first place?
7 children ? You guys are chicken or what? 😂😂😂
Bravo Mayotte! If US do this it will make me proud to be an American.
This is extremely biased reporting from Qatar. Comoros Gov are trying to occupy Mayotte over the wishes of local Mayotte ppl. However ...these immigrants are not the Comoros Gov. But they are still illegal immigrants from Comoros who are randomly building unsafe illegal structures to live in, on an island filled with local Mayotte ppl that have building codes and chose not join their island to be a part of Comoros when they were provided the option. The immigrantsbalways had the option to build them in their own Country of Comoros, but they chose not to. Does ur country allow random unsafe buildings built by illegal immigrants?
@@dsdgdsfegfegFrench government ruined with Comoros when the run the place for years. It will take at least a few more decades until the Comorans sort all that out.
Seven children you cant afford. That is child abuse
Agreed....
Rubbish
Show kids on video, and you can get any message across. Shame on Al Jazeera!
ophans
Comoros love freedom but have to struggle in their daily life coz they can enjoy eat freedom,but Mayotte remain under french they enjoy many privillege under french govt
inotherwords, Myotte has welfare checks from the state? but Free Comoros doesn't?? that would explain a lot.
Straight outta sector 9 movie!
FRANCE conquered many countries & island but if people's come from that place becomes OUTSIDER
0:54 answers your sentiment. They voted for independence except Mayotte and now they're flocking in Mayotte. Because of this Mayotte has since been positioning itself greater attachment to France so as to save itself from experiencing the fate of Comoros.
Make the French regime pay.
Make Africa Pay
@@terrycompton6098 French clowns need to pay
@@terrycompton6098 Mayotte is part of France.
Mayotte is part of France
Well Done France😊
2nd
Did you say well done ....when France Invaders took a lot of African Country's......
@@seniduteklu4935 Yes I Did
Your time will come lad
*France🇨🇵 still occupied Mayotte, Guiana, Guadeloupe, Martinique, Réunion, Saint Martin, Saint Barthélemy, Saint Pierre and Miquelon, New Caledonia, Wallis and Futuna, Polynesia, Clipperton.*
France must end occupation & keep peace!
Silly comment. You do realize these people are trying to gain French citizenship?
And don't forget Britania, Corsica, Basque land, Alsace, Burgandy, Montmarte (inside Paris), Picardy, Normandy... finally France occupies all the territory of France!
In caribean islands black people are not more natives than the white people. Some other islands were inhabited. People who are natives in their territorries made a choice about their independance or autonomy.
@@fabs8498 Stop you're destroying their "victimhood" mentality! LOL!
ASK yourself a deep and honest question first..I tried checking up some facts. Independence has not helped Comoros, citizens are illegally migrating to a more prosperous Mayotte Island under French administration 🙄AS Africans we must ask ourselves a serious question and it rotates around d issue of leadership...We really need to liberate our countries from the hands of inept and corrupt leadership that lack vision. Having visited many African countries with massive resources and massive corruption, i begin to reach this conclusions.
Very very sad.
No Happy Days Get Them Out
HOW MAMY WHITE FRENCH LIVE THERE?
Hazug ez az oldal, úgy , ahogy van!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Is it not against humanity,where is human right?
human right has left europe.
France: human right is a tool, not a right.
Cause this is France’s poorest region it’s already having a mass unemployment besides France doesn’t have any obligation for the people who illegally immigrating there
They dont have a right to be there. They can live in Africa somewhere
Meanwhile Pakistan kicking million afgans where humanity?
Free mayotte
I think the island should either get independence or join The Comoros.
The people are sovereign, it's democracy, and 90% of the Mahoris have chosen to remain French.
@@XavierMaquignon doesnt make sense
@@docaz9453 Mayotte does not want to join the gangs and crimes-ravaged Comoros.
@@docaz9453 makes sense they can get life support from a developed country rather than its poor neighbor even if they barely work to make a living which explains why their GDP is 9x more than its neighbor
@@docaz9453
1. COMOROS opted for complete independence except MAYOTTE.
2. After several decades, MAYOTTE has a better living standards compared to that of COMOROS.
3. People from COMOROS started illegally migrating to MAYOTTE for better life.
4. Locals in MAYOTTE hate these illegal migrants from COMOROS as they hinder development in their island.
5. These people in the video are illegal migrants.
6. Because of this, MAYOTTE wants to fully integrate itself to mainland FRANCE so as to avoid experiencing the same fate as COMOROS.
Does it make sense?
