READING:

Tonga is cleaning up after the tsunami and volcano. The undersea volcano erupted on Saturday. It sent tsunami waves to Japan. It also destroyed large parts of Tonga. A lot of the cleanup work cannot start because of the ash. It buried buildings and is blocking many roads.

Tonga called the disasters a one-of-a-kind event. The volcano cut Tonga's Internet cable. Engineers are trying to fix this. It is difficult to get aid into the country because of damage to the airport. Tonga shut its borders in 2020 to keep COVID-19 out. It is worried that aid workers could bring a "tsunami of COVID-19" into the country.
