Port-au-Prince, Haiti, Oct 7 (IBNS): The number of people killed in Haiti by Hurricane Matthew, which hit the nation on Thursday, has touched 330, according to The Guardian.

The calamity destroyed more than 3200 homes and displaced around 15000 people.

The daily reported that the efforts to access the worst-hit areas have been hampered by flooding.
