Port -Au-Prince - Arab Today
The death toll from Hurricane Matthew rose to 136 in Haiti, local officials said Thursday, as rescue workers started getting a closer look at the extend of the devastation across the Caribbean nation, Fox News reported.
The storm killed four other people in the neighboring Dominican Republic, the news agency added, reporting that many in Haiti were killed by falling trees.
As the weather began calming, convoys and helicopters have begun venturing to marooned corners of the country to assess the damage and determine how to help thousands of people who lost homes, livestock and crops.
In Haiti's southern peninsula towns where Matthew arrived around daybreak Tuesday with 145 mph winds, there was wreckage and misery everywhere.
