Television pictures are slowly
beginning to show how great the damage is in Haiti following the
huge earthquake on Tuesday. A magnitude 7.3 quake, just 16km from
the capital, hit the Caribbean nation as people were going home
after work. Much of the country has been devastated. Many major
buildings in the capital Port-au-Prince have collapsed, including
the Presidential Palace and the UN headquarters. Haiti's President
Rene Preval described the scene in the capital as "unimaginable".
The Red Cross says up to 3 million people have been affected. Mr.
Preval fears "well over 100,000 people" may have
died.
Haiti's ambassador to the USA,
Raymond Joseph, said there was "no way of estimating" how many
casualties there were. Countries around the world are acting
quickly to send whatever help they can to Haiti. Haiti is one of
the poorest countries in the world. More than half of its people
live below the poverty line on less than two dollars a day. It is
one of the poorest-equipped countries on Earth to deal with such a
catastrophe. The nation was still trying to recover from being hit
by four deadly hurricanes in 30 days in 2008. Its economy is in
ruins and it has a long history of corruption and
coups.

their breakfast when the earthquake hit.
