“In response to catastrophic damage caused by Hurricane Melissa in many Caribbean countries, [the State Department] is deploying a regional Disaster Assistance Response Team (DART) and activated US-based Urban Search and Rescue (USAR) teams to bolster response efforts,” the department said in a post on X.
