Haiti faced a second round of tragedy today as the earthquake-ravaged
country struggled to handle even the first trickle of the vast amount of
international aid heading its way.
Relief flights were turned back from Haitis tiny airport, the port
remained closed and most of the capitals infrastructure has been
destroyed.
With three million people in Port-au-Prince facing a desperate shortage of
water, food and medicine and thousands still trapped beneath rubble
experts spoke of a race against time to prevent another wave of deaths.
The first relief flights arrived today, but the airport soon had to stop
them because it was saturated and had no aviation fuel for the planes
return trips. It took six hours to unload a single Chinese plane because
of a lack of equipment. A British aid flight was one of eleven turned
back.
Supplies were piling up a few hundred miles away in the Dominican
Republic, which occupies the other half of the island of Hispaniola.
The port is unuseable because of damaged wharfs and debris in the water.
Most roads are impassable. The Government is barely functioning because
whole ministries were destroyed. There is no running water or electricity,
little heavy lifting equipment and most communications are down.
