Haiti Earthquake January 2010

12 January: Haiti On Tuesday 12 January, a major earthquake hit Haiti, measuring 7.0 on the Richter scale. It struck 10 miles away from the capital Port-au-Prince. This is the strongest earthquake that Haiti has experienced in more than 200 years.

Destruction The earthquake was so strong that many buildings including the National Palace and the cathedral have collapsed. An estimated 50,000 people have died.

Poverty in Haiti This poverty makes the impact of the earthquake even greater. Three million people live in the area affected by the earthquake. Survivors urgently need clean water, food, basic shelter and medicines. Haiti is the poorest country in the western hemisphere.
