Hurricane Beryl Devastates Grenada, Caribbean

Hurricane Beryl has caused significant devastation in the Caribbean, particularly in Grenada, with the death toll rising to three. The storm intensified rapidly, becoming a record-breaking Category 5 hurricane, resulting in widespread destruction and casualties. Prime Minister Dickon Mitchell highlighted the impact on Carriacou and Petit Martinique, comparing the scale of damage to the destructive Hurricane Ivan in 2004. The region is facing fuel shortages hindering recovery efforts, and plans are in place to deliver aid once sea conditions allow. As the storm heads towards Jamaica, other countries like St. Vincent and the Grenadines have already experienced severe effects, emphasizing the urgent need for preparedness and assistance across the Caribbean.
