The destructive earthquake of a magnitudinal force of 7.0 flattened the Capital of Haiti as well as many surrounding neighborhoods. Bodies are piled up in the streets and the churches, hospitals, the main prison and schools. Little children, woman and men lay dead. Senator Youri Latortue reported to the Associated Press that anywhere up to 500,000 could be dead, however there is no official count as of yet. U.S. Humanitarian Chief John Holmes said that it is possible for the death toll to reach that amount. Entire neighborhoods of homes are flattened and bodies lay strewn throughout.
The International Red Cross is on scene and a spokesperson has reported that up to one third of Haiti’s population could need medical care.

The Red Cross has announced plans for damage assessments and relief operations for this devastated and poverty stricken country.
