Category 4 Cyclone Kevin left significant destruction after it hit Port Vila, the capital of Vanuatu, on the night of Friday 3 March.

The video shows damage in Independence Park, Port Vila, at around 8am local time.

The storm moved on to blast the southern island province of Tafea on Saturday morning, damaging infrastructure, telecommunications and crops.

It was the third disaster to hit the country in two days, being preceded by an earthquake earlier on Friday and another cyclone on Thursday.

A state of emergency was declared, and the prime minister, Ishmael Kalsakau, said officials were working to assess the damage.
