But the search was made difficult by\u003cbr/\u003ecollapsed walls, boulders and downed power lines that blocked heavy machinery.\u003cbr/\u003eMany streets were left blocked by boulders.\u003cbr/\u003eProvincial Governor Manuel Castellanos said workers were struggling to clear roadways and power and water service had been knocked out.\u003cbr/\u003eAt least 300 houses in Verapaz were flooded after a river overflowed its bank, Red Cross spokesman Carlos Lopez Mendoza said.\u003cbr/\u003eVerapaz resident Ernesto Romero described how he watched as a truck was swept away.\u003cbr/\u003e\"I looked from the window and saw how the water, this high, took it. And I was inside and I could not leave, not in this direction nor in the other direction,\" he said.\u003cbr/\u003eThe rains unleashed massive rock slides from the Chichontepec volcano that buried

evaluate the extent of the damage.\u003cbr/\u003eInterior Minister Humberto Centeno told reporters that \"the instructions given by the the President of the Republic, Mauricio Funes, are to involve the whole cabinet and civil servants of our government in order to provide help to all the people affected.\"\u003cbr/\u003eEl Salvador was slammed by three days of heavy rains from a Pacific coast low-pressure system indirectly related to Hurricane Ida, which brushed the Mexican resort of Cancun Sunday and steamed into the Gulf of Mexico as a Category 2 hurricane.\u003cbr/\u003eThe mountains in El Salvador quickly funnelled rain down into populated valleys. \u003cbr/\u003ePoverty and precarious construction appeared to play a role in the destruction, as homes clinging to steep hillsides quickly fell prey to mudslides.\u003cbr/\u003eAuthorities had to use helicopters to reach some of the most severely affected townships as many roads were impassable, Centeno said.\u003cbr/\u003eAt Las Hojas beach, in the department of La Paz, 27 miles (45 kilometres) south of San Salvador, most of the houses were swept away by the current of the Jiboa river, which burst its banks.\u003cbr/\u003eThere was almost nothing left standing in the village and a helicopter from the Salvadorean emergency services evacuated women and children to shelters in the
