Hurricane Beryl Has Not Affected Mexicans, No Casualties Reported

 


The coordinator of Civil Protection of Mexico, Laura Velázquez, reported on Friday that so far they are not injured and killed after Hurricane Beryl made landfall in the early hours of the morning in the north of the Mexican municipality of Tulum, state of Quintana Roo (southeast).

During a call made in the framework of the morning press conference of President Andrés Manuel López Obrador, Velázquez said: “We have no reports so far of injured or deceased; I repeat these are preliminary data, we are in the relief phase”. He added: “We are already doing tours mainly in Tulum throughout the length and breadth of the municipality”.

López Obrador advised people not to leave, as fallen trees can pose a risk to the population.

The official announced that, according to the Federal Electricity Commission (CFE), in Tulum about 40 percent of the region is without electricity, in Isla Mujeres 50 percent, while in Cozumel seven colonies do not have the service.

On the other hand, the governor of Quintana Roo, Mara Lezama, launched on social network X the following notice: “Quintanarroenses, the municipalities of north, east, west and center of Quintana Roo we continue in Yellow Alert before the removal of Hurricane Beryl from our shores”.
