The fierce category 5 hurricane, Irma, destroyed almost every building on the island of Barbuda in the Carribean on this date. The entire population of 1800 people was evacuated in the following days to nearby Antigua.
To this day only a small fraction of the former residents have returned to the island they call home. Let's hope things get better soon.
