PORT-AU-PRINCE Aid is pouring into the earthquake-stricken Caribbean
nation of Haiti, even as officials try to estimate the scale of the
devastation in a complex and evolving human tragedy.
Here are some of the latest figures provided by various organizations,
which are constantly being modified and updated.
DEATH AND DESTRUCTION
Death tolls are difficult to estimate. The Red Cross has spoken of 45,000
to 50,000 dead. But Lieutenant General Ken Keen, the US general running
the relief effort, said the international community should be prepared for
the worst and the toll could be as high as 200,000.
At least 25,000 corpses have already been buried, according to Haitian
government figures.
The United Nations has estimated that three million people were affected,
and 300,000 left homeless. Some 40 tent cities have sprung up in
Port-au-Prince, the Red Cross has estimated.
Some 80 to 90 percent of buildings in the town of Leogane, just outside
Port-au-Prince near the epicenter of Tuesday's quake, were destroyed, and
50 to 60 percent of buildings in Jacmel to the west were leveled.
The International Organization of Migration has estimated that 200,000
families, comprising up to one million people, need immediate shelter and
non-food assistance.
