Teams from the medical charity MSF are still trying to assess the humanitarian needs of people in Haiti following hurricane Matthew.

The five departments of Grande Anse, Sud, Nippes, Artibonite and Nord-Ouest were badly hit by the powerful storm.

Travelling to affected areas remains difficult and the full scale and nature of the disaster has still not been determined.

Officials in Haiti say the death toll is in the hundreds and continues to rise. The risk of cholera is also said to be high.
