Hundreds of people have been killed by mudslides and flash foods in the border region around Malpasse, Fond Verettes, Thiotte and Grand Gosier. In Fond Verettes around 160 people died as a flash flood scoured a section of town half a mile long and 1,000 feet wide. At least 540 houses were destroyed or buried, and another 1,500 were damaged, according to a UN official.
Relief workers say that about 50 of the 135 or so people killed on the Dominican side of the border were thought to be Haitian black-market traders camped out in the town of Jimani.
