Floods and landslides that hit central and eastern Mexico have killed 76 people, and 27 are missing.
Around 120 settlements remained cut off after several days of heavy rainfall, it was announced at a press conference by Mexican President Claudia Scheinbaum.
"The emergency response is not over yet, we continue to work," said the president, who also announced the distribution of the first tranche of financial assistance of around 466 million euros for around 100.000 affected families.
The state of Hidalgo has the largest number of isolated settlements, 65 of them, because they are in mountainous areas that are difficult to access because roads have been damaged by landslides.
Veracruz, in the east of the country, on the Gulf of Mexico coast, is the state hardest hit by the floods.
Several municipalities are crossed by rivers that can overflow within hours if the water level rises.
More than 12.700 military and naval personnel have been deployed to states affected by the disaster, and assistance is being provided to isolated people by air and boat.
According to the weather service, the rainfall at the end of the rainy season was the result of a tropical depression that entered the Gulf of Mexico and encountered a cold front from the north.
