The city of Trujillo is along the coast under the "hook" of Punta Caxinas, and the city of Tocoa is at the edge of the floodplain near where it begins to broaden where a small but visible tributary comes into the south of the main course of the river. In a report dated Friday, November 6, 1998, a missionary living in the city of Trujillo reported (via email before her batteries ran out) that the military was confiscating food aid that had been delivered, and it has been difficult to confirm her story or get additional information about this problem. On November 9, the road between Trujillo and Tocoa was reopened, allowing ground transport of medical supplies. Tocoa is one of seven regional centers that were the focus of deliveries of medicines, medical supplies and equipment, emergency shelters, and water and sanitation supplies by Doctors without Borders. Honduras-wide, CARE estimated that half the country was under water, and death tolls from the Hurricane exceeded 5,000.
