Hurricane Matthew’s death toll in the Caribbean has climbed to nearly 900 people, mostly in Haiti.

Days after Hurricane Matthew moved away from Haiti, the number of people killed continues to rise in the hundreds as villages are reached by aid and rescue workers for the first time since the storm hit.

Authorities and aid workers still lack a clear picture of what they fear is the country’s biggest disaster in years.
