Port-au-Prince, Haiti: Hurricane Matthew has claimed at least 108 lives in Haiti, Interior Minister Francois Anick Joseph told AFP on Thursday, two days after the monster storm ripped through the poorest country in the Americas.

The hurricane left 50 dead in the single town of Roche-a-Bateau, on Haiti’s south coast, which local deputy Ostin Pierre-Louis said was ‘devastated’.

The provisional death toll from the storm previously stood at 23 in Haiti.
