Death toll rises to 38 in Madagascar after cyclone

At least 38 people have died in the cyclone that hit Madagascar on Tuesday.

12,000 people have been forced to flee as the powerful storm hit the country's second-largest city, Toamasina. Madagascar's president, Michael Randrianirina, says three-quarters of the city has been destroyed.

Buildings have been destroyed and trees have been uprooted by the strong winds.
