Voice of America | Hurricane Helene cleanup efforts underway in North Carolina | VOA News #shorts @VOANews | Uploaded October 2024 | Updated October 2024, 1 week ago.
Clean-up efforts from the damage wrought by Hurricane Helene were ongoing in the flood-ravaged North Carolina mountain town of Swannanoa on Wednesday
U.S. President Joe Biden travels Thursday to the southeastern states of Florida and Georgia to tour areas hit by Hurricane Helene and to meet with first responders and state officials involved in disaster response efforts.
The visits follow stops Biden made Wednesday in North Carolina and South Carolina, while Vice President Kamala Harris made her own visit to Georgia.
“It is going to cost billions of dollars to deal with this storm and all the communities affected,” the president said after a helicopter survey over parts of North Carolina affected by Helene. “You can see homes that have moved clearly from one side of the river down the river to another side."
