Haiti Earthquake

PORT-AU-PRINCE, HAITI - JANUARY 19, 2010: A woman (in pink) cries, having been hit, as a MINUSTAH (UN Stabilization Mission in Haiti) security personnel member stands guard as people try to force their way into the warehouse of the Dominican Republic Red Cross branch in Port-au-Prince for food handouts, where hundreds gather each day, amongst the ruins from the 7.0 magnitude earthquake which struck Haiti on Tuesday January 12, 2010. The earthquake's epicentre was about 15km south-west of the capital Port-au-Prince, and there were two strong aftershocks of 5.9 and 5.5 magnitude. Aid efforts are underway, but many remain missing, injured, and without homes. Haiti was already the poorest country in the western hemisphere. The Red Cross estimated that up to 3 million people have been affected. (Photo by Alvaro Ybarra Zavala/Edit by Getty Images)
