Relief supplies began reaching thousands of St Thomas, Jamaica residents who were marooned for days after being hit by fierce winds and torrential rains from the outer bands of Hurricane Dennis..
The disaster management agency also airlifted stranded residents out of Cascade, a small district near the borders of St Andrew and Portland in the Blue Mountain range.
Supplies went into Clarendon, St Catherine and St Ann among other areas.
The Government was expected to decide at the start of the week, which sections of the island, if any, will be declared disaster areas.
