Communities In Jamaica Remain Underwater

JAMAICA – Jamaican officials say entire communities in Western Jamaica remain underwater, two weeks after Hurricane Melissa slammed the island as a category five storm, leaving at least forty five dead and fifteen missing.

Authorities report massive debris has cut off hard-hit areas, making roads impassable and slowing humanitarian aid.

More than 30,000 families are still displaced, with water, electricity, and transportation only partially restored.

The Jamaican government is appealing for urgent international help.
