How many people died one region alone after cyclone Ivan? [originaltext] In 2

In 2005 we all looked on in awe at the devastation of New Orleans at the hands of hurricane Katrina, but the wider world barely noticed recently when a storm of very similar power and ferocity struck remote Eastern Madagascar. (23) Cyclone Ivan destroyed tens of thousands of homes, and in one region alone there were at least a hundred deaths. (24) Doctor Terahue is the government’s head of region for Analanjirofo on the country’s east coast. At the moment though, he looks more like a general who having weathered a huge attack at great cost has discovered that the enemy is amassing once more. If Madagascar’s annual cyclone season can be seen as a battle against the forces of nature then this year it is more true than ever.
