Hurricane Sandy struck Cuba and Haiti, resulting in a death toll of 65 people and causing more than $80 million in damage. The storm made landfall, triggering widespread destruction and leaving thousands homeless. Infrastructure, including buildings, roads, and power lines, suffered severe harm. The affected regions faced challenges in terms of accessing clean water, food, and medical care. The impact of Hurricane Sandy was especially devastating in impoverished areas where communities already faced limited resources and fragile infrastructure.
Relief efforts were mobilized to provide aid and support to those affected, with organizations and governments stepping in to assist with recovery and rebuilding efforts. The resilience of the communities was tested as they worked to recover from the disaster and restore normalcy to the affected areas.
