Earthquake Strikes In Haiti
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
More than 227 people dead after 7.2-magnitude earthquake
strikes Haiti.
Tropical Storm Grace is predicted to Hit Haiti on Monday.
YOUR HELP IS URGENTLY NEEDED
The earthquake struck on Saturday morning 12km (7.4 miles) northeast of Saint-Louis du Sud, on Haiti’s southern Tiburon Peninsula, at a shallow depth of 10km (6.2 miles), the United States Geological Survey (USGS) reported.
At least 227 people have been killed after a 7.2 magnitude earthquake struck southwest Haiti, the country’s civil protection agency said, hours after the quake reduced buildings to rubble and sent terrified residents running out of their homes in search of safety.
The government is in turmoil, a month after the assassination of President Jovenel Moise, while areas of the country are facing growing hunger, healthcare services are overwhelmed by COVID-19. Gang control of key areas has restricted access to the southern region, where the quake struck and now the Haitians are bracing for Tropical Storm Grace. YOUR HELP IS NEEDED!
