Tens of thousands of people are feared buried alive after a magnitude 7 earthquake, struck the Caribbean nation of Haiti. The epicenter was just 16 kilometers southwest of the capital, Port-au-Prince. The tremor occurred at a depth of 10 kilometers and is the strongest to hit the country in almost 200 years.

 

Haiti's capital resembled a war-zone in the aftermath of the earthquake.

Dazed and injured survivors wandered the streets. Some lay on the street in utter disbelief at what had happened.

Scores of bodies lay strewn in the streets. Those who survived grieved for lost loved ones.
